CPRTCopart
Is the price fair?
Undemanding: cheap against its own history and cheap vs its sector.
Priced for ~7% a year FCF growth. Roughly in line with its three-year revenue growth of 6% a year.
Cheap vs its own history: P/E 17.6 vs a 29.9 median over 41 quarters (−41% vs median).
Sector median 23.3× across 246 covered peers. EV/EBIT counts debt as part of the price, so a cash-rich and a borrowed company can be compared on the same footing.
