Struggle For Hertz Continues As Stock Loses 23% - Here's Why

Author: Shivani Kumaresan | April 25, 2024 10:54am

Shares of Hertz Global Holdings, Inc (NASDAQ:HTZ) are trading lower after the company reported first-quarter FY24 sales growth of 1.6% year-on-year to $2.08 billion, beating the analyst consensus estimate of $2.039 billion.

Average rentable vehicles increased 10% to 529,232, with 76% vehicle utilization.

Total revenue per day (RPD) declined 7% to $56.68. Americas RAC segment revenue increased slightly by 1% whereas the International RAC segment climbed 8%.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 26.7% to $162 million.

Hertz held $945 million in cash and equivalents as of March-end. Operating cash flow for the quarter totaled $370 million.

Adjusted corporate EBITDA for the quarter was $(567) million, with an adjusted corporate EBITDA margin of (27)%.

Adjusted EPS of $(1.28) missed the analyst consensus estimate of $(0.44).

“Fleet and direct operating costs weighed on this quarter’s performance,” said CEO Gil West. “We’re tackling both issues – getting to the right supply of vehicles at an acceptable capital cost while at the same time driving productivity up and operating costs down.”

Price Action: HTZ shares are trading lower by 23% at $4.465 at the last check Thursday.
