ESTERO, Fla., Aug. 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. (OTCPK: HTZZ; OTCPK: HTZZW) ("Hertz Global" or the "Company") today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2021.

For the second quarter 2021, the Company generated total revenues of $1.9 billion reflecting strong leisure travel demand coupled with tighter fleet inventory. Adjusted Corporate EBITDA was $639 million resulting in a 34% margin. The improvement resulted from strong revenues, efficient fleet management and over $400 million of structural, and recurring, cost reduction. The Company generated a net loss of $168 million or $1.05 loss per share, which included $633 million of reorganization expenses.

"Hertz delivered an outstanding second quarter as travel continued to rebound," said Paul Stone, Hertz Global's President and Chief Executive Officer. "With resurgent demand and tight supply across the industry, we remained agile in managing our fleet to meet customers' needs. At the same time, we benefited from the important operational and financial improvements we made through our restructuring process. Our improved financial position and capital structure give us the flexibility and resources to build upon our strengths and capitalize on accelerating momentum in the quarters ahead."

"We are optimistic about a sustained recovery and travel rebound. We are carefully managing our fleet accordingly to deliver superior customer experience while optimizing profitability," Mr. Stone continued.

Hertz Global emerged from its Chapter 11 process on June 30, 2021 as a well-capitalized company with the flexibility and resources to pursue exciting new growth opportunities. The Company anticipates a re-IPO, which includes hosting an investor roadshow and relisting on a major exchange by year-end 2021.

The pandemic-related impact on global travel continues to be a headwind for International RAC and segment revenues continued to be down compared to second quarter 2019 levels. Strong residual values, disciplined fleet management and the Company's continued execution on productivity were able to offset the revenue headwinds.  International RAC Adjusted EBITDA loss was $1 million, which reflected an improvement of $111 million year-over-year.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company emerged from Chapter 11 with significantly lower non-vehicle debt levels relative to its pre-Chapter 11 balance sheet. At June 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 June 30, 2021, the Company had $70 million of letters of credit deemed issued 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 $3.0 billion at June 30, 2021, comprised of $1.8 billion in unrestricted cash and $1.2 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 June 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%.

ADDITIONAL MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

Pre-recorded audio commentary on Hertz Global's second quarter 2021 results from President and CEO Paul Stone and CFO Kenny Cheung is available at the Company's IR website at https://ir.hertz.com/events-presentations

RESULTS OF THE HERTZ CORPORATION

The Company's operating subsidiary, The Hertz Corporation ("Hertz"), posted the same revenues as the Company for the second quarter of 2021 and 2020. Hertz's second quarter 2021 pre-tax loss was $51 million versus the Company's pre-tax loss of $215 million. The difference between Hertz'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. Hertz's second quarter 2020 pre-tax loss was $1.2 billion versus the Company's pre-tax loss of $1.0 billion. The difference between Hertz's and the Company's GAAP results is primarily due to Hertz's write off in the second quarter of 2020 of $133 million due from the Company. The non-GAAP profitability metrics for Hertz are materially the same as those for Hertz Global for the second quarter 2021 and 2020.

FINANCIAL REORGANIZATION

As previously announced, on May 22, 2020, Hertz Global, Hertz and certain of their direct and indirect subsidiaries in the United States and Canada filed voluntary petitions for relief under chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code ("Chapter 11"). On June 10, 2021, a joint Chapter 11 plan of reorganization (the "Reorganization") was confirmed by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the "Bankruptcy Court") and became effective on June 30, 2021. On the same day, the Company emerged from Chapter 11 in accordance with the terms of the Reorganization.

Information related to the Reorganization and emergence from Chapter 11 is included in the Hertz Global and Hertz quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and on the Hertz website, IR.Hertz.com. Additional information, including access to documents filed with the Bankruptcy Court, is also available online at https://restructuring.primeclerk.com/hertz, a website administered by Prime Clerk, LLC, a third-party bankruptcy claims and noticing agent.

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

The selected financial data of Hertz Global 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 2021, and in connection with its Chapter 11 emergence, 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. 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 June 30, 2021, which are included in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 filed with the SEC and on the Hertz website, IR.Hertz.com.

NON-GAAP MEASURES AND KEY METRICS

Hertz Global is the top-level holding company that indirectly wholly owns Hertz. 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 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 Rental Revenues

Total Rental Revenues represents total revenues less ancillary retail vehicle sales 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 excludes the impact of ancillary revenues resulting from vehicle sales and 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 Rental Revenues 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.

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

Total RPU Per Month represents the amount of average Total Rental Revenues 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.
