Positive
  • Total revenues increased by 114% year-over-year in the Americas.
  • Adjusted Corporate EBITDA reached a record $860 million with a 39% margin.
  • Strong pricing power and disciplined fleet management contributed to operational success.
Negative

ESTERO, Fla., Oct. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. (OTCPK: HTZZ; OTCPK: HTZZW) ("Hertz", "Hertz Global" or the "Company") today announced financial results for the third quarter of 2021.

For the third quarter 2021, the Company generated total revenues of $2.2 billion, reflecting the continued rebound in leisure travel and tight fleet inventory as Hertz executes against its strategic roadmap. While volume continued to be lower compared to 2019 levels, these headwinds were partially mitigated by improvements in pricing power. Adjusted Corporate EBITDA reached a record $860 million and the Company achieved a record 39% margin for the third quarter, reflecting the team's dedication to continued operational improvement since completing the restructuring. Importantly, top- and bottom-line results were not meaningfully impacted in an incremental manner by the Delta Variant.

"Hertz delivered another solid quarter, which puts us in a position of strength as we create the new Hertz and lead the future of mobility and travel," said Mark Fields, Hertz's Interim Chief Executive Officer. "We see the opportunity for profitable growth by building on our iconic brand and global fleet management expertise, and combining it with new technology and new investments in electrification, shared mobility and a digital, customer-first experience."

NM - Not meaningful

Global travel constraints continue to impact the International RAC business. Management's structural improvements on pricing mitigated the impact of lower volume compared to the third quarter 2019. The Company's disciplined fleet management and continued execution on productivity contributed to profitability. International RAC Adjusted EBITDA was $78 million, nearly closing the gap to the third quarter 2019 level.

Q4 AND FULL YEAR 2021 GUIDANCE

The Company's guidance for the fourth quarter and full year 2021 includes Adjusted Corporate EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company believes it is impracticable to provide a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measures due to (i) the forward-looking nature of the adjusted measure, (ii) the degree of uncertainty associated with forecasting the reconciling items and amounts, and (iii) providing estimates of the amounts that would be required to reconcile the forecasted adjusted measure to its forecasted GAAP measure would imply a degree of precision that could be confusing or misleading to investors.

The Company forecasts the following:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company completed its restructuring in June 2021 with significantly lower non-vehicle debt levels relative to its pre-restructuring balance sheet. At September 30, 2021 the Company had $1.5 billion in outstanding non-vehicle debt, comprised of a $1.3 billion Term B Loan and a $245 million Term C Loan that will support the issuance of letters of credit. In addition, the Company has a $1.3 billion first lien revolving credit facility ("First Lien RCF").  At September 30, 2021, the Company had $366 million of letters of credit outstanding and no borrowings outstanding under the First Lien RCF. The Company has no material non-vehicle debt maturities until 2026.

The Company's liquidity position totaled $3.8 billion at September 30, 2021, comprised of $2.7 billion in unrestricted cash and $1.1 billion of availability under the First Lien RCF.

The Company also refinanced its ABS program with $2.8 billion of committed funding under a 2-year, floating rate syndicated bank sponsored Variable Funding Rental Car Asset Backed Notes, of which $2.3 billion was drawn at September 30, 2021. The Company also issued $4.0 billion in Fixed Rate Rental Car Asset Backed Notes split evenly between 3- and 5-year maturities. The overall cost of the ABS funding in the United States is currently below 2.0%.

RESULTS OF THE HERTZ CORPORATION

The Company's operating subsidiary, The Hertz Corporation ("Hertz Corp."), posted the same revenues as the Company for the third quarter of 2021 and 2020, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. Hertz Corp.'s third quarter 2021 pre-tax income was $752 million versus the Company's pre-tax income of $768 million. The difference between Hertz Corp.'s and the Company's GAAP results is due to a $16 million change in fair value of the Company's Public Warrants in the third quarter of 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, Hertz Corp.'s pre-tax income was $968 million versus the Company's pre-tax income of $820 million. The difference between Hertz Corp.'s and the Company's GAAP results is due to a $164 million backstop fee associated with a rights offering offered by the Company in the second quarter of 2021 offset by a $16 million change in fair value of the Company's Public Warrants in the third quarter of 2021. Hertz Corp. and the Company's pre-tax loss were the same for the third quarter of 2020.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, Hertz Corp.'s pre-tax loss was $1.8 billion versus the Company's pre-tax loss of $1.7 billion resulting primarily from Hertz Corp.'s write off in the second quarter of 2020 of $133 million due from the Company. The non-GAAP profitability metrics for Hertz Corp. are materially the same as those for Hertz for the third quarter 2021 and 2020, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.

SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA, SUPPLEMENTAL SCHEDULES, NON-GAAP MEASURES AND DEFINITIONS

The selected financial data of Hertz are set forth on page 7 of this release. Also included are Supplemental Schedules, which are provided to present segment results, and reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to their most comparable GAAP measures.

In the second quarter of 2021, the Company revised its reportable segments to combine its Canada, Latin America and Caribbean operations with the U.S. and renamed its U.S. Rental Car segment Americas Rental Car ("Americas RAC"). As a result, those operations will no longer be reported in the International RAC segment. Accordingly, prior periods have been recast to conform with the revised presentation. Additionally, in the second quarter of 2021, the Company added a financial statement line item for non-vehicle depreciation and amortization to better align with current industry practice. In the third quarter of 2021, the Company revised its calculation of Total RPD and Total RPU to include ancillary retail vehicle sales revenues to better align with current industry practice. For the revisions noted above, prior periods have been restated to conform with the revised presentation. Refer also to Supplemental Schedule IV.

Following the Supplemental Schedules, the Company provides definitions for terminology used throughout this earnings release and provides the usefulness of non-GAAP measures to investors and additional purposes for which management uses such measures.

Financial data included in this release are derived from our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended September 30, 2021, which are included in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 filed with the SEC and on the Hertz website, IR.Hertz.com. We have prepared the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements on the same basis as we have prepared our audited consolidated financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, that management considered necessary for a fair statement of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the quarter.

NON-GAAP MEASURES AND KEY METRICS

The term "GAAP" refers to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Adjusted EBITDA is the Company's segment measure of profitability and complies with GAAP when used in that context.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

Non-GAAP measures are not recognized measurements under GAAP. When evaluating the Company's operating performance or liquidity, investors should not consider non-GAAP measures in isolation of, superior to, or as a substitute for measures of the Company's financial performance as determined in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share ("Adjusted Diluted EPS")

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) represents income or loss attributable to the Company as adjusted to eliminate the impact of GAAP income tax, debt-related charges and losses, restructuring and restructuring related charges, intangible and tangible asset impairments and write-downs, information technology and finance transformation costs, non-cash acquisition accounting charges, reorganization items, pre-reorganization and non-debtor financing charges, gain from the sale of a business and certain other miscellaneous items on a pre-tax basis. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) includes a provision (benefit) for income taxes derived utilizing a combined statutory rate. The combined statutory rate is management's estimate of the Company's long-term tax rate. Its most comparable GAAP measure is net income (loss) attributable to the Company.

Adjusted Diluted EPS represents Adjusted Net Income (Loss) on a per diluted share basis using the weighted-average number of diluted shares outstanding for the period. Its most comparable GAAP measure is diluted earnings (loss) per share.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Diluted EPS are important operating metrics because they allow management and investors to assess operational performance of the Company's business, exclusive of the items mentioned above that are not operational in nature or comparable to those of the Company's competitors.

Adjusted Corporate EBITDA and Adjusted Corporate EBITDA Margin

Adjusted Corporate EBITDA represents income or loss attributable to the Company as adjusted to eliminate the impact of GAAP income tax, non-vehicle depreciation and amortization, net non-vehicle debt interest, vehicle debt-related charges and losses, restructuring and restructuring related charges, goodwill, intangible and tangible asset impairments and write-downs, information technology and finance transformation costs, reorganization items, pre-reorganization and non-debtor financing charges, gain from the sale of a business and certain other miscellaneous items.

Adjusted Corporate EBITDA Margin is calculated as the ratio of Adjusted Corporate EBITDA to total revenues.

Management uses these measures as operating performance metrics for internal monitoring and planning purposes, including the preparation of the Company's annual operating budget and monthly operating reviews, and analysis of investment decisions, profitability and performance trends. These measures enable management and investors to isolate the effects on profitability of operating metrics most meaningful to the business of renting and leasing vehicles. They also allow management and investors to assess the performance of the entire business on the same basis as its reportable segments. Adjusted Corporate EBITDA is also utilized in the determination of certain executive compensation. Its most comparable GAAP measure is net income (loss) attributable to the Company.

KEY METRICS

Available Car Days

Available Car Days represents Average Vehicles multiplied by the number of days in a given period.

Average Vehicles ("Fleet Capacity" or "Capacity")

Average Vehicles is determined using a simple average of the number of vehicles in the fleet whether owned or leased by the Company at the beginning and end of a given period.

Depreciation Per Unit Per Month ("Depreciation Per Unit" or "DPU")

Depreciation Per Unit Per Month represents the amount of average depreciation expense and lease charges per vehicle per month, exclusive of the impacts of foreign currency exchange rates. Management believes eliminating the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is appropriate so as not to affect the comparability of underlying trends. This metric is important to management and investors as it reflects how effectively the Company is managing the costs of its vehicles and facilitates comparisons with other participants in the vehicle rental industry.

Total Revenues - adjusted for foreign currency

Total Revenues - adjusted for foreign currency represents total revenues, with all periods adjusted to eliminate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Management believes eliminating the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is appropriate so as not to affect the comparability of underlying trends. This metric is important to management and investors as it represents a measure that facilitates comparisons with other participants in the vehicle rental industry.

Total Revenue Per Transaction Day ("Total RPD"or "RPD"; also referred to as "pricing")

Total RPD represents the ratio of Total Revenues - adjusted for foreign currency to Transaction Days. This metric is important to management and investors as it represents a measure of changes in the underlying pricing in the vehicle rental business and encompasses the elements in vehicle rental pricing that management has the ability to control.

Effective during the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company revised its calculation of Total RPD to include ancillary retail vehicle sales revenues to better align with current industry practice, where prior periods have been restated to conform with the revised definition.

Total Revenue Per Unit Per Month ("Total RPU" or "RPU")

Total RPU Per Month represents the amount of average Total Revenues - adjusted for foreign currency per vehicle per month. This metric is important to management and investors as it provides a measure of revenue productivity relative to fleet capacity, or asset efficiency.

Transaction Days ("Days"; also referred to as "volume")

Transaction Days represents the total number of 24-hour periods, with any partial period counted as one Transaction Day, that vehicles were on rent (the period between when a rental contract is opened and closed) in a given period. Thus, it is possible for a vehicle to attain more than one Transaction Day in a 24-hour period. This metric is important to management and investors as it represents the number of revenue-generating days.

Vehicle Utilization ("Utilization")

Vehicle Utilization represents the ratio of Transaction Days to Available Car Days. This metric is important to management and investors as it measures the proportion of vehicles that are being used to generate revenues relative to fleet capacity.
