The period balance: money in, money out
In the Form 4 filings submitted between Sep 17, 2025 and Oct 19, 2026 there is not one open-market purchase of Copart, Inc.: 8 sales worth $21.4M and zero dollars bought.
Only codes P and S count, where an insider puts in or takes out their own money. A selling balance like Copart, Inc.'s is the norm in the S&P 500, where much of the pay comes as stock. It is not a recommendation to buy or sell: it is what was filed.
Every transaction, code by code
| Code | What it means | Trades | Reported amount |
|---|---|---|---|
| M | Option exercise | 9 | $6.2M |
| S | Open-market sale | 8 | $21.4M |
| G | Gift | 4 | $0 |
| J | Other transaction (explained in the filing) | 1 | $0 |
| Total | Everything filed in the period | 22 | $27.5M |
5 of the 22 rows carry no usable amount on the Form 4: they count as trades and add $0. The code labels come from the SEC index.

How to read this data
1 of the 8 sales in the table are flagged as scheduled (10b5-1 plan): signed months ahead and executed automatically, so they say nothing about what the insider thinks today. Copart has no open-market purchase (code P) in the history, the most common case in the S&P 500: insiders are already paid in stock. The latest filing is from Oct 19, 2026, and a Form 4 arrives up to two business days after the trade.
11 of the 20 rows in the table carry footnotes from the Form 4 itself, folded into the code column and copied verbatim; a row with no footnote means the filing has none. Code J on its own only says "other transaction": which one it is, if the filing explains it, is in its footnote.
