Dallas, Texas. (February 18, 2021) — 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.

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.
