Rating change draws attention
According to Yahoo Finance, the stock changed hands at USD 33.18 at 9:37 a.m. EDT, after opening at USD 33.10 and ranging between USD 33.05 and USD 33.32. The same page shows a 52-week range of USD 26.81 to USD 49.16 and YTD performance of minus 15.25 percent.
MarketWatch listed Copart at USD 33.18 as a real-time quote and put the company value at USD 31.09 billion. It also showed volume of 121.14K against a 65-day average of 11.81 million shares, which underlines how thin the opening flow was versus a normal session.
Quarterly figures stay current
Yahoo Finance shows Q3 FY26 revenue of USD 1.24 billion and net income of USD 402.4 million, with a profit margin of 32.53 percent. Revenue rose 9.68 percent year over year, while net income increased 13.9 percent.
The same figures matter because they frame the current valuation at a P/E ratio of 20.92 and diluted EPS of USD 1.61. For investors, the combination of a 32.53 percent margin and USD 999.98 million in levered free cash flow suggests the operating base is still generating substantial cash.
