Business Summary Insurance Auto Auctions, Inc. (IAA), together with its subsidiaries, offers insurance companies and other vehicle suppliers cost-effective salvage processing solutions. The Company processes salvage vehicles under three methods: purchase agreement, fixed-fee consignment and percentage-of-sale consignment. Under the purchase agreement method, IAA generally purchases vehicles from the insurance companies upon clearance of title, under financial terms determined by contract with the insurance company supplier, and then resells these vehicles for IAA's own account at IAA auctions. Under the fixed-fee consignment and percentage-of-sale consignment methods, the Company sells vehicles on behalf of insurance companies, which continue to own the vehicles until they are sold to buyers at auction. More from Market Guide: Expanded Business Description Financial Summary IAAI offers insurance companies and other vehicle suppliers salvage processing solutions, primarily the sale at auction of total loss, damaged and recovered theft vehicles. For the six months ended 7/1/01, revenues fell 10% to $153.4 million. Net income fell 94% to $526 thousand. Revenues reflect a planned strategic shift away from vehicles sold under the purchase agreement method. Earnings reflects the inclusion of $6 million in special charges.
