Copart and uShip Work Together to Provide Transport Solutions for Copart Vehicle Buyers

Copart, Inc. (NASDAQ:CPRT) and uShip announced today they have entered into an agreement to feature uShip as a preferred transport solution for Copart’s buyers on www.copart.com, which accounts for more than 1 million vehicles sold annually. uShip is an online shipping marketplace that enables users to find the best transport companies and prices for transporting hard-to-ship items such as cars, boats, freight and furniture.

The agreement enables Copart customers to estimate transport costs for specific vehicles using uShip’s Shipping Price Estimator, a uShip innovation that calculates average prices paid by other uShip members for comparable shipments. Using the Shipping Price Estimator, prospective buyers can instantly get an accurate estimate of the cost to ship a vehicle anywhere in the U.S. and Canada.

After purchasing a vehicle from Copart, buyers can easily import the vehicle details into the uShip marketplace to receive competing quotes from feedback-rated transport companies. Copart buyers will be able to save significantly on transport costs using uShip's reverse-auction format and search functionality, which dramatically reduce shipping costs by enabling service providers to find shipments along their routes and fill empty cargo space.

According to uShip and Copart customer R. Michael Ferrell of Vanguard Auto Sales in Scottsdale, AZ, uShip’s shipping marketplace provides a perfect complement to Copart.

"I needed an engine for a C5 Corvette and finally found one through Copart, but it was located in California. The car was extremely damaged and did not roll – I was afraid that no one would be willing to ship it,” Ferrell said. "I’ve had trouble in the past shipping damaged cars. I decided to list the car on uShip to see what options were available. The car was picked up on-time and delivered for no more than the cost of a non-wrecked car. In the past, when we needed to ship a car we purchased, it was a challenge finding someone to do it on our timetable. Now we just create a free listing on uShip.com, and we are always able to find multiple options and great prices.”

uShip CEO Matt Chasen believes the new agreement will bring the practice of shipping remarketed vehicles to the next level. "Copart’s massive inventory and legendary customer service, combined with our network of quality transportation providers will create the best possible experience for those who need to move vehicles and equipment all over the country. With the difficult economy, customers are watching every cent, and we’re here to help connect them with a transport company that can get the job done for the best possible price.”

Copart President A. Jayson Adair said connecting customers with uShip is the latest example of how Copart continues to lead the industry in simplifying and streamlining the remarketing process. "More than 100,000 buyers from more than 100 countries use Copart to purchase vehicles not only because we offer one of the largest selections of vehicles available anywhere, but because we are constantly introducing new innovations designed to improve the speed, efficiency, and convenience of purchasing vehicles online. Adding uShip’s shipping tools and services into www.copart.com is one of those innovations – and we are happy to be working with them to help our buyers become even more efficient and successful.”

Cautionary Note About Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws, including statements regarding the impact or benefit of Copart’s agreement with uShip. Actual results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements due to a number of risks and uncertainties, including uShip’s ability to continue to market and sell its solutions and support its customers, the ability of Copart and uShip to integrate their tools and services, increased competition in uShips’ industry, requirements or changes adversely affecting the business in which uShip is engaged and general economic conditions. Additionally, Copart’s business has become increasingly reliant on proprietary and non-proprietary technologies, and it is difficult to forecast with accuracy what impact these changes in Copart’s business model will have. Copart depends on a limited number of major suppliers of salvage vehicles. If Copart is unable to maintain these supply relationships, its revenues and operating results would be adversely affected. Copart has only recently entered the UK market through several acquisitions. Copart has limited experience operating outside of North America, and may experience challenges adapting its business model to international markets and integrating the acquired businesses. In addition, Copart’s revenues, operating results, financial condition, and growth rates are subject to numerous other risks, including its ability to complete and integrate new acquisitions, environmental and regulatory risks, and the other factors described under the caption "Risk Factors" in Copart’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q as filed with the SEC. We encourage investors to review these disclosures carefully. Copart does not undertake to update any forward-looking statement that may be made from time to time on its behalf.
