FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may be considered “forward-looking statements” as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The forward-looking statements contained herein are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by any such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include information concerning our future financial performance, business strategy, projected plans and objectives. These statements may be identified by the fact that they do not relate to historical or current facts and may use words such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “may,” “would,” “intends,” “projects,” “estimates,” “plans,” “forecasts,” “guidance,” and similar words, expressions or phrases. The following important factors and assumptions could affect our future results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in such forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to:

• the high level of competition in the mobility industry, including from new companies or technology, and the impact such competition may have on pricing and rental volume;

• a change in our fleet costs, including as a result of a change in the cost of new vehicles, resulting from inflation, trade disputes, tariffs or otherwise, manufacturer recalls, disruption in the supply of new vehicles, including due to labor actions, trade disputes, tariffs or otherwise, shortages in semiconductors and/or other parts used in new vehicle production, and/or a change in the price at which we dispose of used vehicles either in the used vehicle market or under repurchase or guaranteed depreciation programs;

• the results of operations or financial condition of the manufacturers of our vehicles, which could impact their ability to perform their payment obligations under our agreements with them, including repurchase and/or guaranteed depreciation arrangements, and/or their willingness or ability to make vehicles available to us or the mobility industry as a whole on commercially reasonable terms or at all;

• levels of and volatility in travel demand, including future volatility in airline passenger traffic;

• a deterioration or fluctuation in economic conditions, resulting in a recession, decreased levels of discretionary consumer spending for travel, or otherwise, particularly during our peak season or in key market segments;

• an occurrence or threat of terrorism, pandemics, severe weather events or natural disasters, military conflicts, including the ongoing military conflicts in the Middle East and Eastern Europe, or civil unrest in the locations in which we operate, trade disputes and tariffs, and the potential effects of sanctions on the world economy and markets and/or international trade ;

• any substantial changes in the cost or supply of fuel, vehicle parts, energy, labor or other resources on which we depend to operate our business, including as a result of pandemics, inflation, tariffs, the ongoing military conflicts in the Middle East and Eastern Europe, and any embargoes on oil sales imposed on or by the Russian government ;

• our ability to successfully implement or achieve our business plans and strategies, achieve and maintain cost savings and adapt our business to changes in mobility, and successfully implement digital transformation initiatives;

• political, economic, or commercial instability and/or political, regulatory, or legal changes in the countries in which we operate, and our ability to conform to multiple and conflicting laws or regulations in tho se countries;

• the performance of the used vehicle market from time to time, including our ability to dispose of vehicles in the used vehicle market on attractive terms;

• our dependence on third-party distribution channels, third-party suppliers of other services an d co-marketing arrangements with third parties;

Table of Contents

• risks related to completed or future acquisitions or investments that we may pursue, including the incurrence of incremental indebtedness to help fund such transactions and our ability to promptly and effectively integrate any acquired businesses or capitalize on joint ventures, partnerships and other investments;

• our ability to utilize derivative instruments, and the impact of derivative instruments we utilize, which can be affected by fluctuations in interest rates, fuel prices and exchange rates, changes in government regulations and other factors;

• our exposure to uninsured or unpaid claims in excess of historical levels or changes in the number of incidents or cost per incident, and our ability to obtain insurance at desired levels and the cost of that insurance;

• risks associated with litigation or governmental or regulatory inquiries, or any failure or inability to comply with laws, regulations or contractual obligations or any changes in laws, regulations or contractual obligations, including with respect to personally identifiable information and consumer privacy, labor and employment, and tax;

• risks related to protecting the integrity of, and preventing unauthorized access to, our information technology systems or those of our third-party vendors, licensees, dealers, independent operators and independent contractors, and protecting the confidential information of our employees and customers against security breaches, including physical or cybersecurity breaches, attacks, or other disruptions, compliance with privacy and data protection regulation, and the effects of any potential increase in cyberattacks on the world economy and markets and/or international trade;

• any impact on us from the actions of our third-party vendors, licensees, dealers, independent operators and independent contractors and/or disputes that may arise out of our agreements with such parties;

• any major disruptions in our communication networks or information systems;

• risks related to tax obligations and the effect of future changes in tax laws and accounting standards;

• risks related to our indebtedness, including our substantial outstanding debt obligations, recent and future interest rate increases, which increase our financing costs, downgrades by rating agencies and our ability to incur substantially more debt;

• our ability to obtain financing for our global operations, including the funding of our vehicle fleet through the issuance of asset-backed securities and use of the global lending markets;

• our ability to meet the financial and other covenants contained in the agreements governing our indebtedness, or to obtain a waiver or amendment of such covenants should we be unable to meet such covenants;

• significant changes in the timing of our fleet rotation, carrying value of goodwill, or long-lived assets, including when there are events or changes in circumstances that indicate the carrying value may exceed the current fair value, which have in the past resulted in and in the future could result in a significant impairment charge; and

• other business, economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory, political or technological factors affecting our operations, pricing or services.

We operate in a continuously changing business environment and new risk factors emerge from time to time. New risk factors, factors beyond our control, or changes in the impact of identified risk factors may cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in any forward-looking statements. Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as a prediction of actual results. Moreover, we do not assume responsibility if future results are materially different from those forecasted or anticipated. Other factors and assumptions not identified above, including those discussed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results

Table of Contents

of Operations,” in Item 2 and “Risk Factors” in Item 1A in this quarterly report and in similarly-titled sections set forth in Item 7 and in Item 1A and in other portions of our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 14, 2025 (the “2024 Form 10-K”), may contain forward looking statements and involve uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statements.

Although we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, any or all of our forward-looking statements may prove to be inaccurate and we can make no guarantees about our future performance. Should unknown risks or uncertainties materialize or underlying assumptions prove inaccurate, actual results could differ materially from past results and/or those anticipated, estimated or projected. We undertake no obligation to release any revisions to any forward-looking statements, to report events or to report the occurrence of unanticipated events. For any forward-looking statements contained in any document, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

(Unless otherwise noted, all dollar amounts are in millions, except per share amounts)

1. Basis of Presentation

Avis Budget Group, Inc. provides mobility solutions to businesses and consumers worldwide. The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts and transactions of Avis Budget Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries, as well as entities in which Avis Budget Group, Inc. directly or indirectly has a controlling financial interest (collectively, “we,” “our,” “us,” or the “Company”), and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial reporting.

We operate the following reportable business segments:

• Americas - consisting primarily of (i) vehicle rental operations in North America, South America, Central America and the Caribbean, (ii) car sharing operations in certain of these markets, and (iii) licensees in the areas in which we do not operate directly.

• International - consisting primarily of (i) vehicle rental operations in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia and Australasia, (ii) car sharing operations in certain of these markets, and (iii) licensees in the areas in which we do not operate directly.

The operating results of acquired businesses are included in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements from the dates of acquisition. We consolidate joint venture activities when we have a controlling interest and record non-controlling interests within stockholders’ equity and the statement of comprehensive income equal to the percentage of ownership interest retained in such entities by the respective non-controlling party. On September 30, 2025, we received a contribution of $ 12 million from a non-controlling interest party in exchange for approximately 17 % in a new joint venture which is consolidated by the Company.

In presenting the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and related disclosures. Estimates, by their nature, are based on judgment and available information. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. In management’s opinion, the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of interim results reported. The results of operations reported for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year or any subsequent interim period. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “2024 Form 10-K”).

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Our significant accounting policies are fully described in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in our 2024 Form 10-K.

Cash and cash equivalents, Program cash and Restricted cash. The following table provides a detail of cash and cash equivalents, program and restricted cash reported within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets to the amounts shown in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.


	As of September 30,
	2025		2024
Cash and cash equivalents	$	564	$	602
Program cash	71		44
Restricted cash (a)	4		3
Total cash and cash equivalents, program and restricted cash	$	639	$	649

__________

(a) Included within other current assets.

Table of Contents

Vehicle Programs. We present separately the financial data of our vehicle programs. These programs are distinct from our other activities since the assets under vehicle programs are generally funded through the issuance of debt that is collateralized by such assets. The income generated by these assets is used, in part, to repay the principal and interest associated with the debt. Cash inflows and outflows relating to the acquisition of such assets and the principal debt repayment or financing of such assets are classified as activities of our vehicle programs. We believe it is appropriate to segregate the financial data of our vehicle programs because, ultimately, the source of repayment of such debt is the realization of such assets.

Transaction-related costs, net. Transaction-related costs, net are classified separately in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. These costs are comprised of expenses primarily related to acquisition-related activities such as due diligence and other advisory costs, expenses related to the integration of the acquiree’s operations with our own operations, including the implementation of best practices and process improvements, non-cash gains and losses related to re-acquired rights, expenses related to pre-acquisition contingencies and contingent consideration related to acquisitions.

Currency Transactions. We record the gain or loss on foreign currency transactions on certain intercompany loans and the gain or loss on intercompany loan hedges within interest expense related to corporate debt, net.

Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”). We review our investments to determine if they are VIEs. A VIE is an entity in which either (i) the equity investors as a group lack the power through voting or similar rights to direct the activities of such entity that most significantly impact such entity’s economic performance or (ii) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support. Entities that are determined to be VIEs are consolidated if we are the primary beneficiary of the entity. The primary beneficiary possesses the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance and has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that are significant to it. We will reconsider our original assessment of a VIE upon the occurrence of certain events such as contributions and redemptions, either by us, or third parties, or amendments to an entity’s governing documents. On an ongoing basis, we reconsider whether we are deemed to be a VIE’s primary beneficiary. We account for VIEs where we are not the primary beneficiary under the equity method.

Our former subsidiary, Avis Mobility Ventures LLC (“AMV”), is a VIE. We lack the ability to direct the significant activities of AMV and are not its primary beneficiary. As such, we account for AMV under the equity method. See Note 14 – Related Party Transactions.

Investments. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had equity method investments with a carrying value o f $ 122 million and $ 100 million, respectively, which are included in other non-current assets. Earnings from our equity method investments are included within operating expenses. For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we recorded income of $ 9 million and $ 7 million related to our equity method investments, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we recorded income of $ 14 million and $ 13 million related to our equity method investments, respectively. In July 2024, we received a $ 7 million dividend from our equity method investment in our Greece licensee. See Note 14 – Related Party Transactions for our equity method investment in AMV.

Revenues. Revenues are recognized under Leases (Topic 842), with the exception of royalty fee revenue derived from our licensees and revenue related to our customer loyalty program, which were approximately $ 61 million and $ 88 million during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $ 156 million and $ 184 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Reclassification

We reclassified certain items within operating activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on reported net cash provided by operating activities.

Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements

Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures

On January 1, 2024, as the result of a new accounting pronouncement, we adopted ASU 2023-07, “Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures,” which amends Topic 280 primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The update was effective in our Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, and became effective on an interim basis beginning on January 1, 2025. The adoption of this accounting pronouncement has resulted in incremental disclosures within Note 17 – Segment Information.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures

On January 1, 2025, as the result of a new accounting pronouncement, we adopted ASU 2023-09, “Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures,” which amends Topic 740 primarily through enhanced income tax disclosures, improving transparency into the factors affecting income tax expense. We expect to include certain additional income tax disclosures in the notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses,” which amends Topic 220 primarily through requiring disclosures in the notes to financial statements about certain costs and expenses. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted on a prospective or retrospective basis. ASU 2024-03 becomes effective for us on January 1, 2027. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this accounting pronouncement.

Table of Contents

Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, “Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software,” which amends Topic 350 primarily to modernize the accounting for software costs. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual period. A prospective, modified or retrospective transition approach is permitted. ASU 2025-06 becomes effective for us on an interim basis beginning on January 1, 2028. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this accounting pronouncement.

Lessee

We have operating and finance leases for rental locations, corporate offices, vehicle rental fleet and equipment. Many of our operating leases for rental locations contain concession agreements with various airport authorities that allow us to conduct our vehicle rental operations on site. In general, concession fees for airport locations are based on a percentage of total commissionable revenue as defined by each airport authority, some of which are subject to minimum annual guaranteed amounts. Concession fees other than minimum annual guaranteed amounts are not included in the measurement of operating lease right of use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities and are recorded as variable lease expense as incurred. Our operating leases for rental locations often also require us to pay or reimburse operating expenses.

3. Restructuring and Other Related Charges

In 2024, we initiated a global restructuring plan to further right size our operations (“Global Rightsizing”). The costs associated with this initiative are primarily related to the operational scaling of processes, locations, and lines of business. We expect further restructuring expense of approximately $ 7 million related to this initiative to be incurred this year.

In 2022, we initiated a restructuring plan to focus on consolidating our global operations by designing new processes and implementing new systems (“Cost Optimization”). This initiative is complete.

The following tables summarize the changes to our restructuring-related liabilities and identify the amounts recorded within our reportable segments for restructuring charges and corresponding payments and utilizations:


	Personnel Related		Facility Related		Other		Total

Other Related Charges

Officer Separation Costs

In February 2025, we announced that Joseph A. Ferraro, President and Chief Executive Officer, would transition to a Board Advisor role effective June 30, 2025. In connection with Mr. Ferraro’s departure, we recorded other related charges of approximately $ 3 million and $ 11 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and expect further expense of approximately $ 3 million to be incurred this year.

4. Earnings Per Share

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) (shares in millions):


		Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
		2025		2024		2025		2024
Net income (loss) attributable to Avis Budget Group, Inc. for basic and diluted EPS		$	359	$	237	$	( 142 )	$	137

Basic weighted average shares outstanding		35.2		35.5		35.2		35.6
Non-vested stock (a)		0.3		0.2		—		0.2
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding (b)		35.5		35.7		35.2		35.8

Earnings (loss) per share
	Basic	$	10.22	$	6.67	$	( 4.02 )	$	3.86
	Diluted (c)	$	10.11	$	6.65	$	( 4.02 )	$	3.84

__________

(a) For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, an immaterial amount and 0.2 million non-vested stock awards, respectively, have an anti-dilutive effect and therefore are excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, 0.2 million non-vested stock awards have an anti-dilutive effect and therefore have been excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding.

(b) For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, our number of diluted weighted average shares outstanding excludes the effect of non-vested stock as the effect would have been anti-dilutive. This occurs when a net loss is reported and the effect of using dilutive shares would be anti-dilutive. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, 0.2 million non-vested stock awards have an anti-dilutive effect and therefore have been excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding.

5. Other Current Assets

Other current assets consisted of:


	As of		As of
	September 30,		December 31,
	2025		2024

Prepaid vehicle license and registration (a)	113		77
Other	171		236
Other current assets	$	812	$	662

__________

(a) For the year ended December 31, 2024, we reclassified $ 77 million of prepaid vehicle license and registration to conform to the current year presentation. This reclassification had no impact to other current assets.

Intangible assets consisted of:


	As of September 30, 2025						As of December 31, 2024
	Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Net Carrying Amount		Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Net Carrying Amount
Amortized Intangible Assets

Trademarks	$	514					$	511

For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, amortization expense related to amortizable intangible assets was approximat el y $ 6 million and $ 7 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, amortization expense related to amortizable intangible assets was approximat el y $ 17 million and $ 22 million, respectively.

Based on our amortizable intangible assets as of September 30, 2025, we expect amortization expense of approximately $ 5 million for the remainder of 2025, $ 22 million for 2026, $ 16 million for 2027, $ 11 million for 2028, $ 8 million for 2029 and $ 8 million for 2030, excluding effects of currency exchange rates.

7. Vehicle Rental Activities

The components of vehicles, net within assets under vehicle programs are as follows:


	As of		As of
	September 30,		December 31,
	2025		2024
Rental vehicles	$	22,020	$	20,094
Less: Accumulated depreciation	( 2,928 )		( 3,143 )
	19,092		16,951
Vehicles held for sale	448		594
Vehicles, net investment in lease (a)	100		74
Vehicles, net	$	19,640	$	17,619

__________

(a) See Note 14 – Related Party Transactions.

The components of vehicle depreciation and lease charges, net are summarized below:


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2025		2024		2025		2024
Depreciation expense	$	675	$	723	$	2,025	$	1,940

Vehicle depreciation and lease charges, net	$	678	$	806	$	2,369	$	2,175

__________

(a) For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, includes other fleet charges of $ 390 million related to the accelerated disposal of certain fleet in our Americas reportable segment. These costs relate to vehicles that were not included in the long-lived asset impairment and other related charges recorded in 2024.

Table of Contents

As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, we had payables related to vehicle purchases included in liabilities under vehicle programs - other of $ 216 million and $ 152 million, respectively, and receivables related to vehicle sales included in assets under vehicle programs - receivables from vehicle manufacturers and other of $ 486 million and $ 284 million, respectively.

8. Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was a benefit of 26.5 %. Such rate differed from the Federal Statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to foreign taxes on our International operations and state taxes.

Our effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was a provision of 34.6 %. Such rate differed from the Federal Statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to foreign taxes and U.S. taxes on our International operations.

The Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) published a proposal for the establishment of a global minimum tax rate of 15% (the “Pillar Two rule”), effective as of fiscal 2024. We are closely monitoring developments of the Pillar Two rule as the OECD continues to refine its technical guidance and member states implement tax laws and regulations based on the Pillar Two rule proposals. Based on our preliminary analysis, we do not expect the Pillar Two rule to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.

In July 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted, making permanent key provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, including full expensing of qualified property and modifications to the business interest expense limitation. As a result of this enactment, our deferred tax balances as of September 30, 2025 reflect the new law, resulting in the deferral of a significant portion of current federal tax over future periods. As our income tax provision includes both current and deferred components, the overall net impact to our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 is not significant. We are continuing to monitor additional provisions of the OBBBA that become effective through 2027 for potential future impact.

9. Accounts Payable and Other Current Liabilities

Accounts payable and other current liabilities consisted of:

	September 30,		December 31,

12. Commitments and Contingencies

Contingencies

In 2006, we completed the spin-offs of our Realogy and Wyndham subsidiaries (now known as Anywhere Real Estate, Inc., and Wyndham Hotels and Resorts, Inc. and Travel + Leisure Co., respectively). We do not believe that the impact of any resolution of pre-existing contingent liabilities in connection with the spin-offs should result in a material liability to us in relation to our consolidated financial position or liquidity, as Anywhere Real Estate, Inc., Wyndham Hotels and Resorts, Inc. and Travel + Leisure Co. have agreed to assume responsibility for these liabilities.

We are also involved in litigation that is primarily related to the businesses of our former subsidiaries, including Realogy and Wyndham. We are entitled to indemnification from such entities for any liability resulting from such litigation.

In September 2014, Dawn Valli et al. v. Avis Budget Group Inc., et al. was filed in U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey. The plaintiffs seek to represent a purported nationwide class of certain renters of vehicles from our Avis and Budget subsidiaries from September 30, 2008 through the present. The plaintiffs seek damages in connection with claims relating to alleged misrepresentations and omissions concerning charging customers for traffic infractions and related administrative fees. In October 2023, plaintiffs’ motion for class certification was denied as to their proposed nationwide class and granted as to a subclass, created at the Court’s discretion, of Avis Preferred and Budget Fastbreak members. We have been named as a defendant in other purported consumer class action lawsuits, including a class action filed against us in New Jersey seeking damages in connection with a breach of contract claim, which the Company intends to vigorously defend.

As previously reported, several shareholder plaintiffs sued the Company and management in New Jersey federal court under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, alleging misstatements and omissions about the Company’s fleet strategy in 2024. Those cases were consolidated, co-lead plaintiffs were appointed, and an amended complaint was due to be filed in October 2025. Rather than file an amended complaint, on October 13, 2025, co-lead plaintiffs dismissed the action without prejudice. On October 16, 2025, the Court entered an order dismissing the action without prejudice and closing the case.

Two shareholders filed derivative suits in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey alleging that the Company’s directors and officers breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the Company’s fleet strategy in 2024. The Company is named as a nominal defendant. On October 23, 2025, plaintiffs agreed to dismiss their cases without prejudice, which is subject to court approval.

In September 2025, we received a net pro rata settlement distribution of approximately $ 114 million in connection with the Company’s participation in a class action settlement in the In re Automotive Parts Antitrust Litigation, No. 2:12-md-02311 (E.D. Mich.), which is included within operating expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

Table of Contents

We are currently involved, and in the future may be involved, in claims and/or legal proceedings, including class actions, and governmental inquiries that are incidental to our vehicle rental and car sharing operations, including, among others, contract and licensee disputes, competition matters, employment and wage-and-hour claims, insurance and liability claims, intellectual property claims, business practice disputes and other regulatory, environmental, commercial and tax matters. In addition, we are a defendant in a number of legal proceedings for personal injury arising from the operation of our vehicles.

Litigation is inherently unpredictable and, although we believe that our accruals are adequate and/or that we have valid defenses in these matters, unfavorable resolutions could occur. We estimate that the potential exposure resulting from adverse outcomes of current legal proceedings in which it is reasonably possible that a loss may be incurred could, in the aggregate, be up to approximately $ 45 million in excess of amounts accrued as of September 30, 2025. We do not believe that the impact should result in a material liability to us in relation to our consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

Commitments to Purchase Vehicles

We maintain agreements with vehicle manufacturers under which we have agreed to purchase approximately $ 4.2 billion of vehicles from manufacturers over the next 12 months, a $ 2.1 billion decrease compared to December 31, 2024, financed primarily through the issuance of vehicle-backed debt and cash received upon the disposition of vehicles. Certain of these commitments are subject to the vehicle manufacturers satisfying their obligations under their respective repurchase and guaranteed depreciation agreements.

Concentrations

Concentrations of credit risk as of September 30, 2025 include risks related to our repurchase and guaranteed depreciation agreements with domestic and foreign car manufacturers and primarily with respect to receivables for program cars that have been disposed of, but for which we have not yet received payment from the manufacturer s.

16. Financial Instruments

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Currency Risk. We use currency exchange contracts to manage our exposure to changes in currency exchange rates associated with certain of our non-U.S.-dollar denominated receivables and forecasted royalties, forecasted earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries and forecasted non-U.S. dollar denominated acquisitions. We primarily hedge a portion of our current-year currency exposure to the Australian, Canadian and New Zealand dollars, the euro and the British pound sterling. The majority of forward contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment. The fluctuations in the value of these forward contracts do, however, largely offset the impact of changes in the value of the underlying risk they economically hedge. We have designated our euro-denominated notes as a hedge of our investment in euro-denominated foreign operations.

The estimated net amount of existing gains or losses we expect to reclassify from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to earnings for cash flow and net investment hedges over the next 12 months is not material.

Interest Rate Risk. We use various hedging strategies including interest rate swaps and interest rate caps to create what we deem an appropriate mix of fixed and floating rate assets and liabilities. We use interest rate swaps and interest rate caps to manage the risk related to our floating rate corporate debt and our floating rate vehicle-backed debt. We record the changes in the fair value of our cash flow hedges to other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, and subsequently reclassify these amounts into earnings in the period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings and is presented in the same income statement line item as the earnings effect of the hedged item. We record the gains or losses related to freestanding derivatives, which are not designated as a hedge for accounting purposes, currently in earnings and are presented in the same line of the income statement expected for the hedged item. We estimate that approximately $ 16 million of gain curr ently recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) will be recognized in earnings over the next 12 months.

Table of Contents

Commodity Risk. We periodically enter into derivative commodity contracts to manage our exposure to chan ges in the price of fuel. These instruments were designated as freestanding derivatives and the changes in fair value are recorded in earnings and are presented in the same line of the income statement expected for the hedged item.

We held derivative instruments with absolute notional values as follows:


	As of September 30, 2025
Foreign exchange contracts	$	1,694
Interest rate caps (a)	11,343
Interest rate swaps	750

17. Segment Information

Our chief executive officer, who also serves as our chief operating decision-maker (“CODM,”) assesses performance and allocates resources based upon the separate financial information of our operating segments. We aggregate certain of our operating segments into our reportable segments. In identifying our reportable segments, we also consider the management structure of the organization, the nature of services provided by our operating segments, the geographical areas and economic characteristics in which the segments operate, and other relevant factors.

Our CODM evaluates the operating results of each of our reportable segments based upon revenues and Adjusted EBITDA, which we define as income (loss) from continuing operations before non-vehicle related depreciation and amortization; long-lived asset impairment and other related charges; other fleet charges; restructuring and other related charges; early extinguishment of debt costs; non-vehicle related interest; transaction-related costs, net; legal matters, net, which primarily includes amounts recorded in excess of $ 5 million , related to unprecedented self-insurance reserves for allocated loss adjustment expense, class action lawsuits and personal injury matters; non-operational charges related to shareholder activist activity, which includes third-party advisory, legal and other professional fees; COVID-19 charges, net; cloud computing costs; other (income) expense, net; severe weather-related damages in excess of $ 5 million, net of insurance proceeds; and income taxes. In the first quarter of 2025, we revised our definition of Adjusted EBITDA to exclude other fleet charges. We did not revise prior years' Adjusted EBITDA amounts because there were no other charges similar in nature to these.

We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful as a supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of our operating businesses and in comparing our results from period to period. We also believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it allows them to assess our results of operations and financial condition on the same basis that management uses internally. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or other income statement data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our 2024 Form 10-K. Our actual results of operations may differ materially from those discussed in forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed in “Forward-Looking Statements.” See “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” for additional information. Unless otherwise noted, all dollar amounts in tables are in millions.


OVERVIEW

Our Company

We operate three of the most globally recognized brands in mobility solutions, Avis, Budget and Zipcar, together with several other brands well recognized in their respective markets. We are a leading vehicle rental operator in North America, Europe, Australasia and certain other regions we serve, with an average rental fleet of approximately 746,000 vehicles in third quarter 2025. We also license the use of our trademarks to licensees in the areas in which we do not operate directly. We and our licensees operate our brands in approximatel y 180 countries throughout the world.

Our Segments

We categorize our operations into two reportable business segments: Americas , consisting primarily of (i) vehicle rental operations in North America, South America, Central America and the Caribbean, (ii) car sharing operations in certain of these markets, and (iii) licensees in the areas in which we do not operate directly; and International , consisting primarily of (i) vehicle rental operations in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia and Australasia, (ii) car sharing operations in certain of these markets, and (iii) licensees in the areas in which we do not operate directly.

Business and Trends

Our strategy continues to focus on transforming key parts of our business through technology, system enhancements and data, particularly with respect to customer experience, revenue generation and costs. Additionally, during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, we changed our fleet strategy with respect to United States and Canadian rental car vehicles, to accelerate certain fleet rotations in order to decrease the age of our fleet for competitive reasons. We believe our strategies will continue to strengthen our Company, maximize profitability, and deliver stakeholder value. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we generated revenues of $3.5 billion , net income of $360 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $559 million . These results were primarily driven by increased volume and decreased fleet costs, partially offset by decreased revenue per day.

We continue to be susceptible to a number of industry-specific and global macroeconomic factors that may cause our actual results of operations to differ from our historical results of operations or current expectations. The factors and trends that we currently believe are or will be most impactful to our results of operations and financial condition include the following: interest rates, inflationary impact on items such as commodity prices and wages, cost of new vehicles, used car values, increases in the number of personal injury claims and cost per incident, and an economic downturn that may impact travel demand, all of which may be exacerbated by ongoing military conflicts, including in the Middle East and Eastern Europe. Additionally, uncertainty remains with respect to tariffs and tax regulations, and this uncertainty has had and may continue to have impacts on our operations. We continue to monitor the potential favorable or unfavorable impacts of these and other factors on our business, operations, financial condition, and future results of operations.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

We measure performance principally using the following key metrics: (i) rental days, which represent the total number of days (or portion thereof) a vehicle was rented, (ii) revenue per day, which represents revenues divided by rental days, (iii) vehicle utilization, which represents rental days divided by available rental days, with available rental days being defined as average rental fleet times the number of days in the period, and (iv) per-unit fleet costs, which represent vehicle depreciation, lease charges and gain or loss on vehicle sales, divided by average rental fleet. Our rental days, revenue per day and vehicle utilization metrics are all calculated based on the actual rental of the vehicle during a 24-hour period. We believe that this methodology provides management with the most relevant metrics in order to effectively manage the performance of the business. Our calculation may not be comparable to the calculation of similarly-titled metrics by other companies. We present currency exchange rate effects to provide a method of assessing how our business performed excluding the effects of foreign currency rate fluctuations. Currency exchange rate effects are calculated by translating the current period results at the prior period average exchange rate plus any related gains and losses on currency hedges.

We assess performance and allocate resources based upon the separate financial information of our operating segments. We aggregate certain of our operating segments into our reportable segments. In identifying our reportable segments, we also consider the management structure of the organization, the nature of services provided by our operating segments, the geographical areas and economic characteristics in which the segments operate, and other relevant factors. Management evaluates the operating results of each of our reportable segments based upon revenues and Adjusted EBITDA, which we define as income (loss) from continuing operations before non-vehicle related depreciation and amortization; long-lived asset impairment and other related charges; other fleet charges; restructuring and other related charges; early extinguishment of debt costs; non-vehicle related interest; transaction-related costs, net; legal matters, net, which primarily includes amounts recorded in excess of $5 million , related to unprecedented self-insurance reserves for allocated loss adjustment expense, class action lawsuits and personal injury matters; non-operational charges related to shareholder activist activity, which includes third-party advisory, legal and other professional fees; COVID-19 charges, net; cloud computing costs; other (income) expense, net; severe weather-related damages in excess of $5 million, net of insurance proceeds; and income taxes. In the first quarter of 2025, we revised our definition of Adjusted EBITDA to exclude other fleet charges. We did not revise prior years' Adjusted EBITDA amounts because there were no other charges similar in nature to these.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025:

• Our revenues totaled $9.0 billion, a decrease of $91 million year-over-year, primarily due to decreased revenue per day.

• Our net loss attributable to Avis Budget Group, Inc. was $142 million, representing a decrease of $279 million year-over-ye ar, primarily due t o other fleet charges related to the accelerated disposal of certain fleet in our Americas reportable segment.

• Our Adjusted EBITDA was $743 million, representing an increase of $14 million year-over-year.

• We received a settlement distribution of $114 million relating to the Company’s participation in the In re Automotive Parts Antitrust Litigation.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We present separately the financial data of our vehicle programs. These programs are distinct from our other activities as the assets under vehicle programs are generally funded through the issuance of debt that is collateralized by such assets. The income generated by these assets is used, in part, to repay the principal and interest associated with the debt. Cash inflows and outflows relating to the generation or acquisition of such assets and the principal debt repayment or financing of such assets are classified as activities of our vehicle programs. We believe it is appropriate to segregate the financial data of our vehicle programs because, ultimately, the source of repayment of such debt is the realization of such assets.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Total assets exclusive of assets under vehicle programs	$	10,780	$	9,668	$	1,112

The increase in total assets exclusive of assets under vehicle programs is primarily due to the remeasurement of our deferred income taxes due to the enactment of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

issuance of Senior Notes due June 2032. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources,” and Note 10 – Long-term Corporate Debt and Borrowing Arrangements to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The increases in both assets under vehicle programs and liabilities under vehicle programs is primarily due to the increase in the cost of our rental fleet and, to a lesser extent, the remeasurement of our deferred income tax liability due to the enactment of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. The decrease in total stockholders’ equity is primarily due to our net loss.

LIQUIDITY AND CA PITAL RESOURCES

Overview

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash on hand and our ability to generate cash through operations and financing activities, as well as available funding arrangements and committed credit facilities, each of which is discussed below.

In February 2025, we borrowed $500 million under a floating rate term loan due December 2025, which is part of our senior revolving credit facilities. The proceeds were primarily used to pay down fleet indebtedness. In June 2025, we fully repaid our outstanding borrowings under the floating rate term loan due 2025.

In April 2025, our Avis Budget Rental Car Funding (AESOP) LLC subsidiary amended and restated its asset-backed variable-funding financing facilities. The proceeds from these borrowings were used to repay maturing vehicle-backed debt and the acquisition of rental cars in the United States.

In May 2025, we issued $600 million of 8.375% Senior Notes due June 2032. Net proceeds were used to repay our floating rate term loan due 2025 and a portion of our 5.750% Senior Notes due July 2027, with the remaining proceeds being used to repay outstanding fleet debt and for general corporate purposes.

In June 2025, we redeemed $100 million of our outstanding 5.750% Senior Notes due July 2027.

In July 2025, we amended our floating rate term loan, extending its maturity date from August 2027 to July 2032 and increasing the interest rate to SOFR plus 2.50%.

During 2025, our Avis Budget Rental Car Funding (AESOP) LLC subsidiary issued approximately $1,708 million of asset-backed notes with expected final payment dates ranging from August 2027 to February 2031 and a weighted average interest rate of 5.33%. The proceeds from these borrowings were used to fund the repayment of maturing vehicle-backed debt and the acquisition of rental cars in the United States.

Our Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to approximately $8.1 billion of our common stock under a plan originally approved in 2013 and subsequently expanded most recently in February 2023 (the “Stock Repurchase Program”). Our stock repurchases may occur through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or trading plans pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The amount and timing of specific repurchases are subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, restricted payment capacity under our debt instruments and other factors. The Stock Repurchase Program may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time without prior notice. The Stock Repurchase Program has no set expiration or termination date. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we did not repurchase shares of common stock under the Stock Repurchase Program. As of September 30, 2025, approximately $757 million of authorization remained available to repurchase common stock under the Stock Repurchase Program.

Cash provided by operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased when compared with the similar period in 2024, primarily due to changes in the components of working capital.

Cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased when compared with the similar period in 2024, primarily due to the increase in our investment in vehicles, partially offset by the increase in proceeds received on vehicle sales.

Cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased when compared with the similar period in 2024, primarily due to the increase in our net borrowings under vehicle programs, partially offset by the increase in our payments on corporate borrowings.

DEBT AND FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS

As of September 30, 2025, we had approximately $25.3 billion of indebtedness, including corporate indebtedness of approximately $6.0 billion and debt under vehicle programs of approximately $19.3 billion. For information regarding our debt and borrowing arrangements, see Note 1 – Basis of Presentation, Note 10 – Long-term Corporate Debt and Borrowing Arrangements and Note 11 – Debt Under Vehicle Programs and Borrowing Arrangements to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

LIQUIDITY RISK

Our primary liquidity needs include the procurement of rental vehicles to be used in our operations, servicing of corporate and vehicle-related debt and the payment of operating expenses. The present intention of management is to reinvest the undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries indefinitely into our foreign operations. Our primary sources of funding are operating revenue, cash received upon the sale of vehicles, borrowings under our vehicle-backed borrowing arrangements and our senior revolving credit facility, and other financing activities.

Our liquidity has in the past been, and could in the future be, negatively affected by any financial market disruptions, a worsening of the United States and worldwide economies or by increases in interest rates, which may result in unfavorable conditions in the mobility industry, in the asset-backed financing market and in the credit markets generally. We believe these factors have affected and could further affect the debt ratings assigned to us by credit rating agencies and the cost of our borrowings. Additionally, a worsening or prolonged downturn in the worldwide economy or a disruption in the credit markets could further impact our liquidity due to (i) decreased demand and pricing for vehicles in the used vehicle market, (ii) increased costs associated with, and/or reduced capacity or increased collateral needs, including due to a decrease in the fair value of our fleet, under, our financings, (iii) the adverse impact of vehicle manufacturers being unable or unwilling to honor their obligations to repurchase or guarantee the depreciation on the related program vehicles and (iv) disruption in our ability to obtain financing due to negative credit events specific to us or affecting the overall debt market.

Table of Contents

As of September 30, 2025, we had $564 million of available cash and cash equivalents and access to $429 million of available borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility, providing us with access to approximately $993 million of total liquidity.

Our liquidity position could also be negatively impacted if we are unable to remain in compliance with the consolidated first lien leverage ratio requirement and other covenants associated with our senior credit facilities and other borrowings. As of September 30, 2025, we were in compliance with the financial covenants governing our indebtedness. For additional information regarding our liquidity risks, see Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our 2024 Form 10-K.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

Our future contractual obligations have not changed significantly from the amounts reported within our 2024 Form 10-K with the exception of our commitment to purchase vehicles, which decreased by approximately $2.1 billion from December 31, 2024, to approximately $4.2 billion as of September 30, 2025 due to existing fleet levels. Changes to our obligations related to corporate indebtedness and debt under vehicle programs are presented above within the section titled “Liquidity and Capital Resources—Debt and Financing Arrangements” and also within Note 10 – Long-term Corporate Debt and Borrowing Arrangements and Note 11 – Debt Under Vehicle Programs and Borrowing Arrangements to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Accounting Policies

The results of the majority of our recurring operations are recorded in our financial statements using accounting policies that are not particularly subjective, nor complex. However, in presenting our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported therein. Several of the estimates and assumptions we are required to make relate to matters that are inherently uncertain as they relate to future events and/or events that are outside of our control. If there is a significant unfavorable change to current conditions, it could result in a material adverse impact to our consolidated results of operations, financial position and liquidity. We believe that the estimates and assumptions we used when preparing our financial statements were the most appropriate at that time. Presented within the section titled “Critical Accounting Estimates” of our 2024 Form 10-K are the accounting policies (related to goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets, vehicles, income taxes and public liability, property damage and other insurance liabilities) that we believe require subjective and complex judgments that could potentially affect reported results. There have been no significant changes to those accounting policies or our assessment of which accounting policies we would consider to be critical accounting policies.

New Accounting Standards

For detailed information regarding new accounting standards and their impact on our business, see Note 1 – Basis of Presentation to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to a variety of market risks, including changes in currency exchange rates, interest rates and fuel prices. We assess our market risks based on changes in interest and currency exchange rates utilizing a sensitivity analysis that measures the potential impact on earnings, fair values and cash flows based on a hypothetical 10% change (increase and decrease) in interest and foreign currency exchange rates. We used September 30, 2025 market rates to perform a sensitivity analysis separately for each of these market risk exposures. We have determined, through such analyses, that the impact of a 10% change in interest or currency exchange rates on our results of operations, balance sheet and cash flows would not be material. Additionally, we have commodity price exposure related to fluctuations in the price of unleaded fuel. We anticipate that such commodity risk will remain a market risk exposure for the foreseeable future. We determined that a 10% change in the price of unleaded fuel would not have a material impact on our earnings for the period ended September 30, 2025. For additional information regarding our long-term borrowings and financial instruments, see Note 10 – Long-term Corporate Debt and Borrowing Arrangements, Note 11 – Debt Under Vehicle Programs and Borrowing Arrangements and Note 16 – Financial Instruments to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2025.

(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. During the third quarter of 2025, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

For information regarding our legal proceedings, see Note 12 – Commitments and Contingencies t o our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and refer to our 2024 Form 10-K.

SEC regulations require us to disclose certain information about proceedings arising under federal, state or local environmental provisions if we reasonably believe that such proceedings may result in monetary sanctions above a stated threshold. In accordance with these regulations, we use a threshold of $1 million for purposes of determining whether disclosure of any such proceedings is required pursuant to this item.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

During the quarter ended September 30, 2025, we had no material developments to report with respect to our risk factors. For additional information regarding our risk factors, please refer to our 2024 Form 10-K.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Our Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up t o approximately $8.1 billion of our common stock under a plan originally approved in 2013 and subsequently expanded, most recently in February 2023 (the “Stock Repurchase Program”) . Under our Stock Repurchase Program, we may repurchase shares from time to time in open market transactions, and may also repurchase shares in accelerated share repurchases, tender offers, privately negotiated transactions or by other means. Repurchases may also be made under a plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The timing and amount of repurchase transactions is determined by management based on our evaluation of market conditions, our share price, legal requirements, restricted payment capacity under our debt instruments and other factors. The Stock Repurchase Program may be suspended, modified or discontinued without prior notice. During the third quarter of 2025 , no common stock repurchases were made under the Stock Repurchase Program. As of September 30, 2025 , approximately $757 million of authorization remained available to repurchase common stock under the Stock Repurchase Program.
