Disclosure on Financials in Presentation Amounts shown in this presentation, unless otherwise indicated, are for Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., (HGH), the ultimate parent company of The Hertz Corporation (THC). GAAP and non-GAAP profitability metrics for THC, the wholly owned operating subsidiary, are different from those of HGH. During 2006, the results of HGH and THC varied primarily due to the $1.0 billion loan facility on the books of HGH which was repaid with the proceeds from HGH’s initial public offering. In 2007, THC had lower total expenses than HGH primarily due to $2.0 million of secondary offering costs incurred at the HGH level. In 2008 and the first quarter of 2009 HGH had interest income relating to an intercompany loan to THC. Other minor differences in the various profit metrics for HGH and THC, presented on both a GAAP and non-GAAP basis, exist relating to additional audit fees and interest income relating to additional cash on hand at the HGH level. |

Top 5 Cost Savings Categories Will Contribute to the $570MM in Savings in 2009 Excludes RIF Actions Back Office Re-Engineering - Purchase to Pay Restructure - General Accounting - Fleet Administration Improvements - Order to Cash Restructure - RAC/HERC Back Office Consolidations - Shared Service Consolidation/Site Closure Utilization Projects - Maintenance Throughput - Peak Day Optimization - Other Utilization Elements - Body Shop Throughput - Registration/Re-Registration Process Organization Redesign - European Redesign and HQ Relocation - NA RAC Delayering/Span of Control - HERC Regional Redesign Commissions/Concessions/Credit Card Improvements - Redesign Travel Agent Program - Airport Concession Improvements - Agency Commission - Airline Commissions (Frequent Flyer) - Guaranteed Credit Card Fees Fleet Acquisition Process Improvements - U.S. Fleet Acquisition - Complexity Reduction Project - EU Fleet Acquisition - Alternative Channels |
Back Office Re-Engineering - $54MM Purchase to Pay Restructure $5MM Streamline the Purchase to Pay (P2P) process from 70 to not more than four value streams. Re-engineer processes to eliminate waste, reduce cost by 30%, and increase procurement sourced spend. Savings come via P-Card utilization, correct payments and optimizing terms as well as roughly 10 FTE reductions. Order to Cash Restructure $4MM Globalize, centralize, and streamline collections work by eliminating steps and handoffs, and improved collections effectiveness through improved prioritization, segmentation, and contact strategies. Specific items include electronic invoicing, rework of past due collection and incentives, compensation structure move to more variable rather than fixed salary. Estimated 50-60 FTE reductions. General Accounting $5MM This project consists of consolidation of business partner group, general accounting consolidation between OKC and Dublin, a reduction in manual journal entries, and improvements in fleet accounting, providing an estimated 60 FTE reductions. RAC/HERC Back Office Consolidations $3MM This project works to eliminate non value added reports/processes. With a focus on all tasks that are performed in the field, so that these processes can be eliminated or centralized. Examples include: payroll processing, petty cash, purchase orders, filing, some reporting Projects should reduce 50 FTEs. Fleet Administration and Logistics Improvements $17MM This project is working to eliminate administrative processes related to fleet installations and deletions, such as title requests, vehicle data entry, and OEM claims processing and implement systems to optimize vehicle transport, transporters and move to trip pay for transporters. Based on beta site result we expect to eliminate 760 FTEs. Shared Services Consolidation/Site Closure $20MM Processing opportunities for globalizing/centralizing retail and replacement reservations, customer correspondence, emergency road service, rental extensions, and billing inquires. 75% of these pre-tax improvements come from adjustments and launch of new emergency road service fees. The balance from wage reduction via off-shoring efforts, and cross-training programs, so as people leave, we need not fill vacancies. |

Importance of Non-GAAP Measures EBITDA and Corporate EBITDA provide investors with supplemental measures of operating performance and liquidity. Corporate EBITDA provides supplemental information utilized in the calculation of the financial covenants under Hertz’s senior credit facilities. Management uses EBITDA and Corporate EBITDA as performance and cash flow metrics for internal monitoring and planning purposes, including the preparation of Hertz’s annual operating budget and monthly operating reviews, as well as to facilitate analysis of investment decisions. These measures are important to allow Hertz to evaluate profitability and make performance trend comparisons between Hertz and its competitors. Management also believes that EBITDA and Corporate EBITDA are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industries. EBITDA is also used by management and investors to evaluate our operating performance exclusive of financing costs and depreciation policies. EBITDA and Corporate EBITDA are not recognized measurements under GAAP. When evaluating Hertz’s operating performance or liquidity, investors should not consider EBITDA and Corporate EBITDA in isolation of, or as a substitute for, measures of Hertz’s financial performance and liquidity as determined in accordance with GAAP, such as net income, operating income or net cash provided by operating activities. |
Importance of Non-GAAP Measures Adjusted pre-tax income is important to management because it allows management to assess operational performance of our business, exclusive of the items previously mentioned. 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 the operational performance of the Company on the same basis that management uses internally. Car Rental Rate Revenue, Car Rental Rate Revenue Per Transaction Day, Car Rental Rate Revenue Per Transaction: our management believes eliminating the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency is appropriate so as not to affect the comparability of underlying trends. These statistics are important to management and investors as they represents the best measurements 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. The optional insurance products are packaged within certain negotiated corporate, government and membership programs and within certain retail rates being charged. Based upon these existing programs and rate packages, management believes that these optional insurance products should be consistently included in the daily pricing of car rental transactions. On the other hand, non-rental rate revenue items such as refueling and concession pass-through expense items are driven by factors beyond the control of management (i.e. the price of fuel and the concession fees charged by airports). Additionally, NeverLost units are an optional revenue product which management does not consider to be part of their daily pricing of car rental transactions. Equipment Rental and Rental Related Revenue is important to our management and to investors as it is utilized in the measurement of rental revenue generated per dollar invested in fleet on an annualized basis and is comparable with the reporting of other industry participants. Our management believes eliminating the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency is appropriate so as not to affect the comparability of underlying trends. Net Corporate Debt, Net Fleet Debt and Total Net Debt are important statistics to management, investors and rating agencies as they help measure the Company’s leverage. Net Corporate Debt also assists in the evaluation of the Company’s ability to service its non-fleet-related debt without reference to the expense associated with the fleet debt, which is fully collateralized by assets not available to lenders under the non-fleet debt facilities. |
