CPRT•Copart agrees to buy ACV Auctions in cash deal
Copart agreed to buy ACV for USD 10.5 a share in cash, valuing the equity at about USD 1.9 billion.
The offer implies a roughly 45% premium to ACV’s Aug. 10, 2026 close, before media reports of a potential deal.
The transaction expands Copart into dealer-to-dealer digital wholesale remarketing, adding ACV’s inspection technology, condition data and valuation tools.
Funding, closing timeline and earnings outlook
Funding is expected to come from cash on hand. Closing is targeted by year-end 2026, and ACV is expected to operate as an independent subsidiary after the close.
The transaction is expected to be EPS-neutral in the first full year, turning accretive in fiscal 2028 and beyond.
