Copart, Inc.
For Immediate Release
Copart Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2019 Financial Results
Dallas, Texas. (February 20, 2019) — Copart, Inc. (NASDAQ: CPRT) today reported financial results for the quarter ended January 31, 2019.
For the three months ended January 31, 2019, revenue, gross profit, and net income were $484.9 million, $208.2 million, and $131.4 million, respectively. These represent an increase in revenue of $25.8 million, or 5.6%; an increase in gross profit of $16.6 million, or 8.7%; and an increase in net income of $28.1 million, or 27.2%, respectively, from the same period last year. Fully diluted earnings per share for the three months were $0.55 compared to $0.43 last year, an increase of 27.9%.
For the six months ended January 31, 2019, revenue, gross profit, and net income were $946.3 million, $404.1 million, and $245.5 million, respectively. These represent an increase in revenue of $68.0 million, or 7.7%; an increase in gross profit of $49.3 million, or 13.9%; and an increase in net income of $64.7 million, or 35.8%, respectively, from the same period last year. Fully diluted earnings per share for the six months were $1.01 compared to $0.75 last year, an increase of 34.7%.
The operating results for the three and six months ended January 31, 2018 were adversely affected by abnormal costs of $36.5 million and $72.3 million, respectively, incurred as a result of Hurricane Harvey. These costs included temporary storage facilities; premiums for subhaulers; labor costs incurred from overtime; travel and lodging due to the reassignment of employees to the affected region; and equipment lease expenses to handle the increased volume, as well as cost of vehicle sales. These costs, net of the associated revenues of $44.8 million and $63.4 million, respectively, generated pre-tax income for the three months ended January 31, 2018 of $8.3 million and a pre-tax loss for the six months ended January 31, 2018 of $8.9 million.
Excluding the impact of income taxes on the deemed repatriation of foreign earnings, net of deferred tax changes, disposals of non-operating assets, foreign currency-related gains and losses, and certain income tax benefits related to accounting for stock option exercises, non-GAAP fully diluted earnings per share for the three months ended January 31, 2019 and 2018, were $0.52 and $0.47, respectively. Non-GAAP fully diluted earnings per share for the six months ended January 31, 2019 and 2018, were $0.99 and $0.79, respectively. 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.
On Thursday, February 21, 2019, at 11 a.m. Eastern time, Copart will conduct a conference call to discuss the results for the quarter. The call will be webcast live and can be accessed at http://stream.conferenceamerica.com/copart022119. A replay of the call will be available through April 22, 2019 by calling (877) 919-4059.
