The AI-powered Siri was MIA at WWDC.
No big model. No chatbot fireworks.
But Apple might still make billions from AI—without building it.
Here’s how: 👇

A quality valuation analysis on $CPRT 🧘🏽♂️
•NTM P/E Ratio: 30.29x
•3-Year Mean: 31.75x
•NTM FCF Yield: 2.85%
•3-Year Mean: 2.64%
As you can see, $CPRT appears to be trading near fair value
Going forward, investors can expect to receive ~5% MORE in earnings per share & ~8% MORE in FCF per share🧠***
Before we get into valuation, let’s take a look at why $CPRT is a quality business
BALANCE SHEET✅
•Cash & Equivalents: $4.38B
•Long-Term Debt: $0
$CPRT has an excellent balance sheet
RETURN ON CAPITAL✅
•2020: 26.5%
•2021: 27.6%
•2022: 28.5%
•2023: 24.0%
•2024: 20.3%
•LTM: 18.9%
RETURN ON EQUITY✅
•2020: 32.8%
•2021: 31.1%
•2022: 26.7%
•2023: 23.3%
•2024: 20.1%
•LTM: 18.4%
$CPRT has strong return metrics, highlighting the financial efficiency of the business
REVENUES✅
•2014: $1.16B
•2024: $4.24B
•CAGR: 13.83%
CASH FROM OPERATIONS✅
•2014: $0.26B
•2024: $1.47B
•CAGR: 18.91%
NORMALIZED EPS ✅
•2014: $0.20
•2024: $1.40
•CAGR: 21.48%
SHARE BUYBACKS🆗
•2014 Shares Outstanding: 1.05B
•LTM Shares Outstanding: 0.96B
MARGINS✅
•LTM Gross Margins: 46.5%
•LTM Operating Margins: 37.0%
•LTM Gross Margins: 32.2%
***NOW TO VALUATION 🧠
As stated above, investors can expect to receive ~5% MORE in EPS & ~8% MORE per share
Using Benjamin Graham’s 2G rule of thumb, $CPRT has to grow earnings at a 15.15% CAGR over the next several years to justify its valuation
Today, analysts anticipate 2025 - 2028 EPS growth over the next few years to be less than the (15.15%) required growth rate:
2025E: $1.55 (10.6% YoY) *FY Jul
2026E: $1.73 (11.8% YoY)
2027E: $1.96 (13.5% YoY)
2028E: $2.22 (13.0% YoY)
$CPRT has a great track record of meeting analyst estimates ~2 years out, but let’s assume $CPRT ends 2028 with $2.22 in EPS & see its CAGR potential assuming different multiples
32x P/E: $71.04💵 … ~12.4% CAGR
31x P/E: $68.82💵 … ~11.3% CAGR
30x P/E: $66.60💵 … ~10.1% CAGR
29x P/E: $64.38💵 … ~8.9% CAGR
28x P/E: $62.16💵 … ~7.7% CAGR
As you can see, we’d have to assume >30x earnings for $CPRT to have double digit CAGR potential
While I believe $CPRT can reasonably demand a 30x - 32x multiple (given its wide moat, extensive land ownership, high ROIC & long history of strong & improving fundamentals), I wouldn’t want to rely on that assumption as this leaves us with no margin of safety
Albeit $CPRT is one of those businesses that rarely trades for a deep discount
Therefore, if I wanted to initiate a position in $CPRT, may consider 1/3 the position at $49, 1/3 at $44 & the final 1/3 at $39-$40
Today at $49💵 $CPRT appears to be trading for fair value & is a fair consideration for investment
I consider $CPRT an excellent buy closer to $42💵 where I can potentially expect 12% CAGR assuming a 27x end multiple in 2028

This is pretty wild.
We caught multiple Armed Services Committee members buying defense stocks this week.
They're up big today, while the market is down.
Should politicians be able to trade stock in industries that they directly oversee? https://t.co/9p5i4E1lZv
