Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On July 29, 2009, United Rentals, Inc. issued a press release reporting its results of operations for the quarter ended
June 30, 2009. A copy of the press release is being furnished with this report as Exhibit 99.1.
Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
Certain information concerning our business, financial results and 2009 outlook that we expect to use at certain
investor meetings and presentations can be accessed currently on our website, www.ur.com. Such presentation will be
maintained on our website for at least the period of its use at such meetings and presentations or until superseded by
more current information.
The presentation includes certain financial measures free cash flow, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation
and amortization (EBITDA), adjusted EBITDA and adjusted earnings per share (EPS) that are non-GAAP financial
measures as defined under the rules of the SEC. Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities,
less purchases of rental and non-rental equipment, plus proceeds from sales of rental and non-rental equipment and
excess tax benefits from share-based payment arrangements. EBITDA represents the sum of (loss) income before (benefit)
provision for income taxes, interest expense, net, interest expense-subordinated convertible debentures,
depreciation-rental equipment, non-rental depreciation and amortization and stock compensation expense. Adjusted EBITDA
represents EBITDA plus the restructuring charge. Adjusted EPS represents EPS plus the restructuring charge.
The presentation includes reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their nearest generally accepted
accounting principles financial measures. The Company believes that: (i) free cash flow provides useful additional
information concerning cash flow available to meet future debt service obligations and working capital requirements;
(ii) EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA provide useful information about operating performance and period-over-period growth
and (iii) adjusted EPS provides useful information concerning future profitability. However, none of these measures
should be considered as alternatives to net income, cash flows from operating activities or earnings per share under
GAAP as indicators of operating performance or liquidity.
