PART I—FINANCIAL INFORMATION

ITEM l.    Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and
Shareholders of Hertz Global Holdings, Inc.:

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries as of June 30, 2010,2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 20102011 and June 30, 20092010 and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 20102011 and June 30, 2009.2010. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2009,2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein), and in our report dated February 26, 2010,25, 2011, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2009,2010, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Note 1—Background and Liquidity

Background

Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., or "Hertz Holdings," is our top-level holding company. The Hertz Corporation, or "Hertz," is our primary operating company and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Hertz Investors, Inc., which is wholly-owned by Hertz Holdings. "We," "us" and "our" mean Hertz Holdings and its consolidated subsidiaries, including Hertz.

We are a successor to corporations that have been engaged in the car and truck rental and leasing business since 1918 and the equipment rental business since 1965. Hertz was incorporated in Delaware in 1967. Ford Motor Company, or "Ford," acquired an ownership interest in Hertz in 1987. Prior to this, Hertz was a subsidiary of UAL CorporationUnited Continental Holdings, Inc. (formerly Allegis Corporation), which acquired Hertz's outstanding capital stock from RCA Corporation in 1985. Hertz Holdings was incorporated in Delaware in 2005 and had no operations prior to the Acquisition (as defined below).

On December 21, 2005, investment funds associated with or designated by:

•

Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, Inc., or "CD&R,"



•

The Carlyle Group, or "Carlyle," and



•

BAML Capital Partners, or "BAMLCP" (formerly known as Merrill Lynch Global Private Equity, or "MLGPE" (now known as BAML Capital Partners)Equity),

or collectively the "Sponsors," acquired all of Hertz's common stock from Ford Holdings LLC. We refer to the acquisition of all of Hertz's common stock by the Sponsors as the "Acquisition." Following

In March 2011, the Sponsors sold 50,000,000 shares of their Hertz Holdings common stock to Goldman, Sachs & Co. as the sole underwriter in the registered public offering of those shares.

As a result of our initial public offering in November 2006 and subsequent offerings in June 2007, May 2009, and June 2009 and March 2011, the Sponsors currently ownreduced their holdings to approximately 51%39% of the outstanding shares of common stock of Hertz Holdings.

In January 2009, Bank of America Corporation, or "Bank of America," acquired Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc., the parent company of MLGPE.BAMLCP. Accordingly, Bank of America is now an indirect beneficial owner of our common stock held by MLGPEBAMLCP and certain of its affiliates.

LiquidityNote 2—Basis of Presentation

Our primary liquidity needs include servicing of corporate and fleet related debt, the payment of operating expenses and purchases of rental vehicles and equipmentThe significant accounting policies summarized in Note 2 to be usedour audited consolidated financial statements contained in our operations. Our primary sourcesAnnual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, or "SEC," on February 25, 2011, or the "Form 10-K," have been followed in preparing the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

The December 31, 2010 condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from our audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of funding are operating revenue, cash received onAmerica, or "GAAP."

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the disposal of vehiclesamounts reported in the financial statements and equipment, borrowings under our asset-backed borrowing arrangements and our revolving credit facilities.

As of June 30, 2010, we had $11,693.8 million of total indebtedness outstanding. Accordingly, we are highly leveraged and a substantial portion of our liquidity needs arisefootnotes. Actual results could differ materially from debt service on our indebtedness and from the funding of our costs of operations and capital expenditures.

Our liquidity as of June 30, 2010 consists of cash and cash equivalents, unused commitments under our Senior ABL Facility and unused commitments under our fleet financing facilities. For a description of these amounts, see Note 8—Debt.

Based on all that we accomplished in 2009 and the first half of 2010, our current availability under our various credit facilities and our business plan, we believe we have sufficient liquidity to meet our U.S. debt maturities over the next twelve months. See Note 8—Debt.

In June 2010, Hertz Vehicle Financing LLC, or "HVF," our wholly-owned subsidiary, issued $184.3 million in aggregate principal amount of 3 year and 5 year Subordinated Series 2009-2 Rental Car Asset Backedthose estimates.

Notes, Class B, or the "Series 2009-2 Class B Notes." The 3 year notes carry a 4.94% coupon (5.00% yield) and the 5 year notes carry a 5.93% coupon (6.01% yield) with expected final maturities in 2013 and 2015, respectively. The net proceeds of the offering were or will be used to purchase vehicles under our asset-backed securities, or "ABS," program, used to pay other ABS indebtedness or, to the extent permitted, used for general purposes.

Also, in June 2010, we issued EUR 400 million (the equivalent of $491.1 million as of June 30, 2010) aggregate principal amount of 8.5% Senior Secured Notes due 2015, or the "Euro Notes," and entered into a EUR 220 million (the equivalent of $270.1 million as of June 30, 2010) revolving credit facility that matures in 2013, or the "European Credit Facility." The net proceeds of the Euro Notes and European Credit Facility were used to refinance our International Fleet Debt and Belgian Fleet Financing Facility, both of which were due to mature in December 2010, and the excess was or will be used for general purposes.

As of June 30, 2010, we have approximately $520.5 million of remaining international fleet debt outstanding that matures in December 2010. We are currently in discussions regarding our remaining refinancing options, and based on these discussions and our ability to access the capital markets, we expect to refinance the remaining debt maturing in December 2010 on or prior to maturity. However, the availability of financing is subject to a variety of factors not in our control, including economic and market conditions and investor demand, so there is no guarantee that such facilities can be refinanced or that the terms of such replacement financings will be acceptable. In the event financing is not available or is not available on terms we deem acceptable, we would expect to utilize our corporate liquidity to repay these obligations which could have a negative impact on our operational and financial flexibility, and may require us to make significant operational changes to our business (including, without limitation, reducing the size of our rental fleet, reducing the percentage of our car rental fleet subject to repurchase or guaranteed depreciation programs or reducing or delaying capital expenditures).

In July 2010, we entered into a EUR 400 million (the equivalent of $491.1 million as of June 30, 2010) asset-backed securitization facility that matures in 2013, or the "European Securitization," the proceeds of which were used to refinance the portion of our existing International ABS Fleet Financing Facility relating to France and the Netherlands, which was due to mature in December 2010. This facility refinanced $288.8 million of the $520.5 million of remaining international fleet debt outstanding as of June 30, 2010 that matures in December 2010.

In addition, in July 2010, we issued approximately $750 million in aggregate principal amount of 3 year, 5 year and 7 year Series 2010-1 Rental Car Asset Backed Notes, or the "Series 2010-1 Notes." The net proceeds of the offering were or will be used, to the extent permitted, to purchase vehicles under the ABS program of HVF, to pay other ABS indebtedness or distributed to Hertz and used for general purposes.

The agreements governing our corporate indebtedness require us to comply with two key covenants based on a consolidated leverage ratio and a consolidated interest expense coverage ratio. Our failure to comply with the obligations contained in any agreements governing our indebtedness could result in an event of default under the applicable instrument, which could result in the related debt becoming immediately due and payable and could further result in a cross default or cross acceleration of our debt issued under other instruments. As of June 30, 2010, we were in compliance with all of these financial covenants.

MBIA Insurance Corporation, or "MBIA," and Ambac Assurance Corporation, or "Ambac," provide credit enhancements in the form of financial guarantees for our 2005 Notes, with each providing guarantees for approximately half of the $2,184.9 million in principal amount of the 2005 Notes that was outstanding as of June 30, 2010, all of which matures during 2010.

An event of bankruptcy with respect to MBIA or Ambac between now and the maturities of the 2005 Notes in 2010 would result in an amortization event under the portion of the 2005 Notes guaranteed by the affected insurer. In addition, if an amortization event continues for 30 days or longer, the noteholders of the affected series of notes would have the right to require liquidation of a portion of the fleet sufficient to repay such notes, provided that the exercise of the right was exercised by a majority of the affected noteholders. Ambac has publicly stated that it has insufficient capital to finance its debt service and operating expense requirements beyond the second quarter of 2011 and may need to seek bankruptcy protection.

Since MBIA and Ambac are facing financial instability, have been downgraded one or more times and are on review for further credit downgrade or under developing outlook by one or more credit agencies, we did not have the Series 2009-1 Notes, Series 2009-2 Notes, Series 2009-2 Class B Notes or the Series 2010-1 Notes guaranteed. Accordingly, if a bankruptcy of MBIA or Ambac were to occur prior to the 2005 Notes maturing, we expect that we would use our corporate liquidity and the borrowings under or proceeds from these recent financings to pay down the amounts owed under the affected series of 2005 Notes.

On April 25, 2010, we entered into a definitive merger agreement, or the "Merger Agreement," under which we agreed to acquire Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group, or "Dollar Thrifty," for a purchase price of $41.00 per share, or a total of $1.27 billion, in a mix of cash and Hertz Holdings common stock, based on our closing stock price on the trading day before the agreement was signed. Under the terms of the agreement, Dollar Thrifty has agreed to pay a special cash dividend of $200 million (expected to be approximately $6.88 per share) to its stockholders immediately prior to closing, and each outstanding share of Dollar Thrifty common stock will be converted at the closing into the right to receive from us 0.6366 of a share of our common stock and a cash payment from us equal to $32.80 less the amount of the special cash dividend paid by Dollar Thrifty. At the closing, we will issue an aggregate of approximately 18 million shares of our common stock (excluding shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options that are being converted to Hertz Holdings stock options) and pay an aggregate of approximately $750 million in cash (which does not include the $200 million special cash dividend to be paid by Dollar Thrifty). We intend to fund the cash portion of the purchase price with existing liquidity from the combined company. We also intend to assume or refinance Dollar Thrifty's existing fleet debt outstanding at closing. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, regulatory approvals, approval by Dollar Thrifty stockholders and payment of the special dividend. The transaction is not conditioned on receipt of financing by us; however, it is likely that we will incur additional financing prior to the acquisition to replenish our liquidity levels. We are currently exploring alternatives with respect to debt offerings and other financings.

On July 28, 2010, Avis Budget Group, Inc., or "Avis," submitted a competing offer to acquire Dollar Thrifty, or the "Avis Offer." Pursuant to the terms of our Merger Agreement, the Dollar Thrifty board of directors analyzed the Avis Offer to determine whether its terms were superior to the terms of our Merger Agreement. On August 3, 2010, Dollar Thrifty issued a press release publishing a letter from its chief executive officer and president to Avis's chairman and chief executive officer indicating that Dollar Thrifty's board of directors could not conclude that the terms of the Avis Offer were superior to the terms of our Merger Agreement, but that Dollar Thrifty was ready to review and consider any modifications or additional information Avis may wish to make or provide to address the concerns identified in the letter.

December 31, 2009, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, or "SEC," on February 26, 2010 and March 1, 2010, respectively, or collectively known as our "Annual Report," have been followed in preparing the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or "GAAP," requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

The December 31, 2009 condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from our audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.

In our opinion, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the interim periods have been made. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current reporting.

Note 3—Recent Accounting PronouncementsFor the six months ended June 30, 2010, we have revised net cash provided by operating activities and net cash used in investing activities within our consolidated statement of cash flows due to a gross-up of cash lease payments relating to our revenue earning equipment in the non-cash add back previously included in depreciation of revenue earning equipment and proceeds from disposal of revenue earning equipment.

For the six months ended June 30, 2010, we have also revised net cash used in investing activities and net cash provided by financing activities within our consolidated statement of cash flows to classify certain payments to a third party finance company for purchases of revenue earning equipment as cash outflows from financing activities as opposed to investing activities.

In June 2009,2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued guidance, which contains amendments to Accounting Standards Codification 810, "Consolidation,Update No. 2011-05, "Presentation of Comprehensive Income," relatingrequiring companies to how a company determinespresent items of net income and other comprehensive income either in one continuous statement, referred to as the statement of comprehensive income, or in two separate, but consecutive statements of net income and other comprehensive income.

Note 4—3—Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

In our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, we net cash flows from revolving borrowings in the line item "Proceeds (repayments)(payments) under the revolving lines of credit, net." The contractual maturities of such borrowings may exceed 90 days in certain cases.

Restricted cash and cash equivalents includes cash and cash equivalents that are not readily available for our normal disbursements. Restricted cash and cash equivalents are restricted for the purchase of revenue earning vehicles and other specified uses under our Fleet Debt facilities, for our Like-Kind Exchange Program, or "LKE Program," and to satisfy certain of our self-insurance regulatory reserve requirements. As of June 30, 20102011 and December 31, 2009,2010, the portion of total restricted cash and cash equivalents that was associated with our Fleet Debt facilities was $671.2$183.2 million and $295.0$115.6 million, respectively. The increase in restricted cash and cash equivalents associated with our Fleet Debtfleet debt of $376.2$67.6 million from December 31, 20092010 to June 30, 2010,2011 was primarily related to the timing of purchases and sales of revenue earning vehicles prior to the end of the quarter.vehicles.

Note 6—Taxes on Income

The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 was (227.8)% and (1.9)%, respectively. The provision for taxes on income of $14.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2010 decreased from $22.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2009, primarily due to decreases in income before income taxes and discrete charges and a decrease in the losses in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions for which a tax benefit cannot be recognized. The provision for taxes on income was $3.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to a benefit of $26.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009. The change is primarily due to a lower loss before income taxes and an increase in discrete charges in the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2009, partially offset by a decrease in losses in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions for which a tax benefit cannot be recognized.statement

The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was 36.5% and (7.2)%, respectively. The provision for taxes on income of $34.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2011 increased from $14.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2010, primarily due to higher income before income taxes, changes in geographic earnings mix and changes in losses in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions for which tax benefits cannot be realized. The provision for taxes on income of $4.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 increased from $3.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010, primarily due to lower loss before income taxes, changes in geographic earnings mix and changes in losses in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions for which tax benefits cannot be realized.

Note 6—Depreciation of Revenue Earning Equipment and Lease Charges

Depreciation of revenue earning equipment and lease charges includes the following (in millions of dollars):

The adjustment of depreciation upon disposal of revenue earning equipment for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, included a net gain of $53.6 million and 2009, includeda net lossesloss of $9.4 million and $11.6 million, respectively, on the disposal of vehicles used in our car rental operations and a net lossesgain of $2.7 million and a net loss of $3.3 million and $6.9 million, respectively, on the disposal of industrial and construction equipment used in our equipment rental operations.

Depreciation rates are reviewed on an ongoinga quarterly basis based on management's routine review of present and estimated future market conditions and their effect on residual values at the time of disposal. During the six months ended June 30, 2010,2011, depreciation rates being used to compute the provision for depreciation of revenue earning equipment were adjusted on certain vehicles in our car rental operations to reflect changes in the estimated residual values to be realized when revenue earning equipment is sold.

We are highly leveraged and a substantial portion of other short-term borrowings); 2012, $180.2; 2013, $1,929.4; 2014, $2,484.5; 2015, $828.7; after 2015, $1,037.4.our liquidity needs arise from debt service on our indebtedness and from the funding of our costs of operations and capital expenditures. We believe that cash generated from operations and cash received on the disposal of vehicles and equipment, together with amounts available under various liquidity facilities, will be adequate to permit us to meet our debt maturities over the next twelve months.

Our short-term borrowings of $3,060.9 million as of June 30, 20102011 include, among other items, the amounts outstanding under our International ABSthe European Securitization, Australian Securitization, U.S. Fleet Financing Facility, Fleet Financing Facility,U.S. Variable Funding Notes, Brazilian Fleet Financing Facility, Canadian Fleet Financing Facility,Securitization, Capitalized Leases and European Revolving Credit Facility.
