Copart, the global vehicle auction company best known for salvage and total-loss sales, has agreed to acquire ACV in a deal that could reshape how dealers buy and sell used vehicles online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Announced September 11, Copart will acquire all outstanding shares of ACV common stock for $10.50 per share in cash, an implied equity value of approximately $1.9 billion. The price represents a roughly 45% premium to ACV&#8217;s stock price before reports of a potential deal surfaced in August, and about 41% above ACV&#8217;s 30-day average trading price. The boards of both companies have unanimously approved the transaction, which is expected to close by the end of 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Copart says the combination pairs ACV&#8217;s digital wholesale platform for dealer-to-dealer resale with its own global buyer network and more than 250 physical locations. Following the close, ACV will continue operating as an independent subsidiary under its existing leadership team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For dealers who rely on ACV for wholesale inventory, the coming months of integration planning are worth monitoring.<\/p>\n<div class=\"niada-bottomboard niada-entity-placement\" id=\"niada-1014933279\"><div id=\"niada-1745031174\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/goldstandardautomotive.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"NIADA Banner 0626 970x66px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/niada.com\/dashboard\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/01\/NIADA-Banner-0626-970x66px.png\" alt=\"\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/niada.com\/dashboard\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/01\/NIADA-Banner-0626-970x66px.png 970w, https:\/\/niada.com\/dashboard\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/01\/NIADA-Banner-0626-970x66px-300x20.png 300w, https:\/\/niada.com\/dashboard\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/01\/NIADA-Banner-0626-970x66px-768x52.png 768w, https:\/\/niada.com\/dashboard\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/01\/NIADA-Banner-0626-970x66px-380x26.png 380w, https:\/\/niada.com\/dashboard\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/01\/NIADA-Banner-0626-970x66px-550x37.png 550w, https:\/\/niada.com\/dashboard\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/01\/NIADA-Banner-0626-970x66px-800x54.png 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 970px) 100vw, 970px\" width=\"970\" height=\"66\"   \/><\/a><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Independent dealers who use ACV Auctions to source or resell wholesale inventory should watch a major shift now&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7176,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_appearance_grid":"","csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[3,11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7829","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-industry","category-inventory-floor-planning","cs-entry","cs-video-wrap"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/niada.com\/dashboard\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7829","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/niada.com\/dashboard\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/niada.com\/dashboard\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/niada.com\/dashboard\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/niada.com\/dashboard\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7829"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/niada.com\/dashboard\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7829\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7830,"href":"https:\/\/niada.com\/dashboard\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7829\/revisions\/7830"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/niada.com\/dashboard\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7176"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/niada.com\/dashboard\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7829"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/niada.com\/dashboard\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7829"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/niada.com\/dashboard\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7829"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
