Copart Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2021 Financial Results

DALLAS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#CopartEarnings–Copart, Inc. (NASDAQ: CPRT) today reported financial results for the quarter ended January 31, 2021.

For the three months ended January 31, 2021, revenue, gross profit, and net income were $617.0 million, $307.5 million, and $193.4 million, respectively. These represent an increase in revenue of $41.9 million, or 7.3%; an increase in gross profit of $47.6 million, or 18.3%; and an increase in net income of $24.7 million, or 14.7%, respectively, from the same period last year. Fully diluted earnings per share for the three months were $0.81 compared to $0.71 last year, an increase of 14.1%.

For the six months ended January 31, 2021, revenue, gross profit, and net income were $1.2 billion, $604.3 million, and $393.7 million, respectively. These represent an increase in revenue of $80.4 million, or 7.1%; an increase in gross profit of $89.5 million, or 17.4%; and an increase in net income of $6.8 million, or 1.8%, respectively, from the same period last year. Fully diluted earnings per share for the six months were $1.64 compared to $1.62 last year, an increase of 1.2%.

Excluding the impact of discrete income tax items, foreign currency-related gains and losses, certain income tax benefits and payroll taxes related to accounting for stock option exercises, non-GAAP fully diluted earnings per share for the three months ended January 31, 2021 and 2020, were $0.80, and $0.64, respectively, which was an increase of 25.0%. Excluding the impact of discrete income tax items, foreign currency-related gains and losses, certain income tax benefits and payroll taxes related to accounting for stock option exercises, non-GAAP fully diluted earnings per share for the six months ended January 31, 2021 and 2020, were $1.58, and $1.29, respectively, which was an increase of 22.5%. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures computed in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) can be found in the tables attached to this press release.
