Market overview
14
Market Overview Road congestion Between 1982-2002, miles traveled increased 79% while highway lane miles increased 3% Congested roads grew from 34% to 58% during same period Current situation 2000 Federal Highway Administration report states “the average annual Cost to Maintain Highways and Bridges projected for the 2001- 2020 period is $11.3 billion (17.5%) higher than 2000 expenditures, while the Cost to Improve Highways and Bridges exceeds current spending by $42.2 billion (65.3%)” “ Comparison of Spending and Investment Requirements”, 2002 Status of the Nation’s Highways, Bridges and Transit: Conditions and Performance.
15
Market Overview Automobile design Manufacturers are incorporating certain design features that increase passenger safety Unibody construction, passenger safety cages with crumble zones, plastic components, airbags, and computer systems Safety features will make it more likely for vehicles to be deemed total losses if involved in accident Gasoline prices Shrink margins under PIP program Significant increases could lead to reduction in miles driven per car and a reduction in accident rates
16
Universal Salvage Acquirement
17
Important Acquisition Entire New Market First foreign investment Size of Acquisition 114 million dollars cost Universal Salvage currently makes revenues of ~21% of Copart With acquisition, would make up ~17%
18
Universal Salvage Universal Salvage is UK based and manages the collection and disposal of vehicles for Clients. These vehicles include accident-damaged cars, commercial vehicles, and motorcycles; low value vehicles sold on a fee basis; and End-of-Life, and tax default vehicles Auction: indoor, outdoor, and Internet Vehicles that can not be sold are recycled at in- house recycling facilities
19
Universal Salvage (Cont) Clients Motor insurers Car retailers Motor manufactures Local and public authorities Private car owners Fleet intermediaries and operators Important Facts A fleet of over 100 transporters and recovery vehicles. More than 150 acres of secure storage facilities. The industry's most sophisticated IT infrastructure. A dedicated in-house contact centre. Sites fully compliant to Annex 1 of European End of Life Directive
20
Universal Salvage (Cont) IT 2005 Universal launch its new online real time IT management system making it available to all its partners to manage their own salvage. Universal rebrand the business revitalizing its look and the company ethos. 2000 Utilizing the company’s in-house IT skills and knowledge, Universal led the salvage industry into online E- Auctions.
21
The Deal Cash Purchase of GBP 57 million (US$112.8 million), $4.4 million in debt assumption 100% Ownership No set date: “deal to close in Copart's fiscal quarter ending July 31, 2007”
22
Confident in Completion of Deal No threats or signs of competitive bids 27% of shareholders agreed to deal regardless of higher bids Cash Offer– no threat of acquirer share depreciation, attractive Market agrees trading very near 200p 3
23
Risk environment Scrap prices Scrap Prices have been on the rise Good for recycling end of business of Universal Salvage Entirely New Market (UK) Laws very similar, however environmental laws becoming more stringent Make new relations with suppliers and clients
24
Legislation – End of Life Directive 2 million vehicles come to the end of their useful life each year in the UK Up until 2007 it is the last owner ’ s responsibility to dispose of the ELV 2007 it is then the producer ’ s responsibility to provide free take back of all ELVs at Approved Treatment Centres. Universal is part of the Caretakeback Approved Treatment Facility (ATF) network No business is like government enforced business!
25
Currency Risk Although not certain, we believe the bid price was set at a locked currency rate British Pound has appreciated against the dollar Good for Copart. Increase in real value of income Neutral for Universal Salvage, as there is no indication of exports/imports Has not enough appreciated enough to put deal at risk

30
Our Verdict Like the buy of Universal at a 6% premium (~ 22 cents a share) Copart will be able to stream line the company, increase margins, and payoff debt. We have great confidence in Coparts managers. As they have made many successful acquisitions in the past.
31
Verdict Cont IT infrastructure already present Should Allow for immediate implementation of Copart software Margin Improvement Universal still has physical “on-sight” at three of their locations Reducing expense, especially Administrative Sell off of recycling centers? Heavily Dependent on Scrap Prices
32
Margin Improvement 1
33
Debt Payoff ~ 7% Interest Rate Loan Immediate pay off of Debt will free up ~ 500,000£ a year, or a 1,000,000$ a year Instantly increasing margins 1

Portfolio Fit

Portfolio fit Correlation matrix
42
Portfolio Fit Sharpe ratio: a measure of the mean excess return per unit of risk in the portfolio With CPRT: S=0.5872 Sell 100 shares of CPRT: S=0.5867 Sell 500 shares of CPRT: S=0.5834 Without CPRT: S=0.5750 Buy 200 shares of CPRT: S=0.5878
43
Valuation
44
Discounted Cash Flow Basic assumptions Revenues continue to show steady increase as CPRT continues to purchase and integrate new facilities G&A decreases slightly over time as installation of VB2 becomes complete Must still maintain staff to service/upgrade Vehicle pooling costs increase slightly due to increases in gas prices and towing costs Under Percentage Incentive Program, can not pass these costs onto customer resulting in smaller margins
45
Discounted Cash Flow WACC Beta = 1.20 Rf = 4.75% Rm = 11% CAPM = 12.3% Although this number adequately captures all the risk of the stock, we believe equity holders would require a return closer to 13%
46
Sensitivity Analysis Lets consider two scenarios Same assumptions are used for CPRT’s performance only the FCF’s from Universal are added First lets consider CPRT without the acquisition of Universal Salvage
47
Sensitivity Analysis Now lets consider the addition of FCF’s with Universal
48
Risks Gas Prices Less travel, squeeze margins Difficulty integrating facilities A large supplier, like State Farm, takes their business elsewhere Only committed to 60-90 day contracts with regional offices
49
Recommendation
50
Hold! We are very bullish on this stock However: Still uncertain with outcome of Universal Salvage Copart is trading at a premium currently
