Maturity reference is to the "expected final maturity date" as opposed to the subsequent "legal maturity date." The expected final maturity date is the date by which Hertz and investors in the relevant indebtedness expect the relevant indebtedness to be repaid, which in the case of the HFLF Medium Term Notes was based upon various assumptions made at the time of the pricing of such notes. The legal final maturity date is the date on which the relevant indebtedness is legally due and payable.

ITEM 2.
|
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|
|
•
|
Adjusted Pre-Tax Income - important to management because it allows management to assess the operational performance of our business, exclusive of certain items and allows management to assess the performance of the entire business on the same basis as the segment measure of profitability. Management believes that it is important to investors for the same reasons it is important to management and because it allows them to assess our operational performance on the same basis that management uses internally.
|
|
•
|
Total Revenue Per Day ("Total RPD") - important to management and investors as it represents the best measurement of the changes in underlying pricing in the car rental business and encompasses the elements in car rental pricing that management has the ability to control.
|
|
•
|
Transaction Days - important to management and investors as it represents the number of revenue generating days per rental agreement. It is used as a component to measure Total RPD and fleet efficiency.
|
|
•
|
Fleet Efficiency - important to management and investors because it is the measurement of the proportion of our car rental fleet that is being used to generate revenues relative to the total amount of available fleet capacity. Higher fleet efficiency means more of the fleet is being utilized to generate revenue.
|
|
•
|
Net Depreciation Per Unit Per Month - important to management and investors as depreciation of revenue earning equipment and lease charges, is one of our largest expenses for the car rental business and is driven by the number of vehicles, expected residual values at the time of disposal and expected hold period of the vehicles. Net depreciation per unit per month is reflective of how we are managing the costs of our fleet and facilitates comparison with other participants in the car rental industry.
|
|
•
|
Dollar Utilization -
important to management and investors because
it is the measurement of the proportion of our equipment rental revenue earning equipment, including additional capitalized refurbishment costs (with the basis for refurbished assets reset at the refurbishment date), that is being used to generate revenues relative to the total amount of available equipment fleet capacity.
|
|
•
|
Time Utilization - important to management and investors as it measures the extent to which the equipment rental fleet is on rent compared to total operated fleet and is an efficiency measurement utilized by participants in the equipment rental industry.
|
|
•
|
Car rental revenues - revenues from all company-operated car rental operations, including charges to customers for the reimbursement of costs incurred relating to airport concession fees and vehicle license fees, the fueling of vehicles and revenues associated with ancillary products associated with car rentals, including the sale of loss or collision damage waivers, liability insurance coverage, parking and other products and fees, ancillary products associated with the retail car sales channel and certain royalty fees from our franchisees;
|
|
•
|
Equipment rental revenues - revenues from all company-operated equipment rental operations, including amounts charged to customers for the fueling and delivery of equipment and sale of loss damage waivers, as well as revenues from the sale of new equipment and consumables; and
|
|
•
|
All other operations revenues - revenues from fleet leasing and management services and other business activities.
|
|
•
|
Direct operating expenses (primarily wages and related benefits; commissions and concession fees paid to airport authorities, travel agents and others; facility, self-insurance and reservation costs; the cost of new equipment and consumables purchased for resale; and other costs relating to the operation and rental of revenue earning equipment, such as damage, maintenance and fuel costs);
|
|
•
|
Depreciation expense and lease charges, net relating to revenue earning equipment (including net gains or losses on the disposal of such equipment). Revenue earning equipment includes cars and rental equipment;
|
|
•
|
Selling, general and administrative expenses; and
|
|
•
|
Interest expense, net.
|
|
•
|
U.S. Car Rental - Rental of cars, crossovers and light trucks, as well as sales of ancillary products and services, in the U.S.;
|
|
•
|
International Car Rental - Rental of cars, crossovers and light trucks, as well as sales of ancillary products and services, internationally;
|
|
•
|
Worldwide Equipment Rental - Rental of industrial, construction, material handling and other equipment; and
|
|
•
|
All Other Operations - Comprised of our Donlen business, which provides fleet leasing and management services, and other business activities, such as our claim management services
.
|
|
•
|
Continued implementation of our previously announced fleet strategy - over 195,000 model year 2015 vehicles added to the U.S. car rental fleet through March 31, 2015, over half of which were added during the first quarter of 2015. The U.S. fleet has been significantly renewed since late September 2014, with a 47% improvement in the number of vehicles at or below 30,000 miles at March 31, 2015;
|
|
•
|
We sold 43% more non-program cars in our U.S. Car Rental segment in the first quarter of 2015 compared with the first quarter of 2014;
|
|
•
|
A decrease in net depreciation per unit per month in both U.S. and international fleets as a result of favorable residual values;
|
|
•
|
A decrease in Total RPD for the U.S. car rental segment due to a higher mix of off airport rentals as a result of an increase in the number of replacement renters during the period, as compared to the first quarter of 2014, the impact of lower fuel prices on ancillary revenue and challenges with our revenue execution capabilities;
|
|
•
|
Increased operating costs in the U.S. car rental segment due to damage expenditures, maintenance expenditures associated with higher mileage cars in the fleet and increased personnel costs to support execution of the fleet renewal goals;
|
|
•
|
Excluding the impact of foreign currency, HERC revenues were higher during the first quarter 2015 as compared to first quarter 2014, despite decreased volumes in the oil and gas customer base, due in part to new customer wins and an increase in volume in commercial construction and infrastructure;
|
|
•
|
Higher maintenance costs in the worldwide equipment rental segment due to the investment made to improve the fleet available to rent and sales costs due to an increase in sales force personnel to focus on winning new accounts and diversifying the customer base;
|
|
•
|
Incurred approximately $9 million in costs associated with the anticipated separation of the equipment rental business;
|
|
•
|
Incurred approximately $10 million in consulting, audit and legal costs associated with the restatement and investigation activities; and
|
|
•
|
Incurred approximately $2 million in fees paid directly to our lenders, noteholders and agents (including increased interest spread on the Senior Term Facility) to obtain waivers under various financing facilities relating to, among other things, the failure to file certain quarterly and annual reports and matters relating to the restatement.

Fleet related expenses rose
$6 million
quarter over quarter. Increases in maintenance, vehicle damage and other expenses were offset in part by a decline in gasoline costs.
|
|
•
|
Personnel related expenses
increase
d
$19 million
, or
7%
, from the first quarter 2014 due to salaries and benefits for incremental headcount for our off airport locations, incremental headcount in maintenance personnel to reduce vehicle downtime and incremental headcount in customer facing service personnel.
|
|
•
|
Other direct operating expenses decreased
$6 million
, or
1%
, from first quarter 2014 due to a decline in net field administration and other direct operating costs of our rental locations, partially offset by a $4 million write-off of service equipment and assets deemed to have no future use.

Adjusted pre-tax income is calculated as income before income taxes plus certain non-cash purchase accounting charges, debt-related charges relating to the amortization and write-off of debt financing costs and debt discounts and certain one-time charges and nonoperational items. Adjusted pre-tax income is important to management because it allows management to assess operational performance of our business, exclusive of the items mentioned above. It also allows management to assess the performance of the entire business on the same basis as the segment measure of profitability. Management believes that it is important to investors for the same reasons it is important to management and because it allows them to assess our operational performance on the same basis that management uses internally. The contribution of our reportable segments to adjusted pre-tax income and reconciliation to consolidated amounts are presented below:

Transaction days represent 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.

|
Total RPD is calculated as total revenue less ancillary revenue associated with retail car sales, divided by the total number of transaction days, with all periods adjusted to eliminate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency. Our management believes eliminating the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency is useful in analyzing underlying trends. This statistic is important to our management and investors as it represents the best measurement of the changes in underlying pricing in the car rental business and encompasses the elements in car rental pricing that management has the ability to control.

Average fleet is determined using a simple average of the number of vehicles at the beginning and end of a given period. Among other things, average fleet is used to calculate our fleet efficiency which represents the portion of the Company's fleet that is being utilized to generate revenue. Fleet efficiency is calculated by dividing total transaction days by the average fleet multiplied by the number of days in a period. In the first quarter 2014, average fleet used to calculate fleet efficiency in our U.S. Rental Car segment excludes Advantage sublease and Hertz 24/7 vehicles as these vehicles do not have associated transaction days. In the first quarter 2015, the quantity of Advantage sublease and Hertz 24/7 vehicles rounds to zero. The calculation of fleet efficiency is shown in the table below.

Net depreciation per unit per month is a non-GAAP measure that is calculated by dividing depreciation of revenue earning equipment and lease charges, net by the average fleet in each period and then dividing by the number of months in the period reported, with all periods adjusted to eliminate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency. Our management believes eliminating the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency is useful in analyzing underlying trends. Average fleet used to calculate net depreciation per unit per month in our U.S. Car Rental segment includes Advantage sublease and Hertz 24/7 vehicles as these vehicles have associated lease charges. Net depreciation per unit per month represents the amount of average depreciation expense and lease charges, net per vehicle per month. The table below reconciles this non-GAAP measure to its most comparable GAAP measure, which is depreciation of revenue earning equipment and lease charges, net, (based on December 31, 2014 foreign exchange rates) for the periods shown:

Worldwide equipment rental and rental related revenue consists of all revenue, net of discounts, associated with the rental of equipment including charges for delivery, loss damage waivers and fueling, but excluding revenue arising from the sale of equipment, parts and supplies and certain other ancillary revenue. Rental and rental related revenue is adjusted in all periods to eliminate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency (based on December 31, 2014 foreign exchange rates). Our management believes eliminating the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency is appropriate so as not to affect the comparability of underlying trends. This statistic is important to our management and investors as it reflects time and mileage and ancillary charges for equipment on rent and is comparable with the reporting of other industry participants. The following table reconciles our worldwide equipment rental segment revenues to our worldwide equipment rental and rental related revenue (based on the elements in car rental pricing that management has the ability to control).
