Note 1 Background

Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. ("Hertz Global" when including its subsidiaries and "Hertz Holdings" excluding its subsidiaries) was incorporated in Delaware in 2015 to serve as the top-level holding company for Rental Car Intermediate Holdings, LLC which wholly owns The Hertz Corporation ("Hertz" and interchangeably with Hertz Global, the "Company"), Hertz Global's primary operating company. Hertz was incorporated in Delaware in 1967 and is a successor to corporations that have been engaged in the vehicle rental and leasing business since 1918. Hertz operates its vehicle rental business globally primarily through the Hertz, Dollar and Thrifty brands from company-owned, licensee and franchisee locations in the U.S., Africa, Asia, Australia, Canada, The Caribbean, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East and New Zealand. Through its Donlen subsidiary, Hertz provides vehicle leasing and fleet management services.

On June 30, 2016, former Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. (for periods on or prior to June 30, 2016, “Old Hertz Holdings” and for periods after June 30, 2016, “Herc Holdings”) completed a spin-off (the “Spin-Off”) of its global vehicle rental business through a dividend to stockholders of record of Old Hertz Holdings as of the close of business on June 22, 2016, the record date for the distribution, of all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Hertz Rental Car Holding Company, Inc. (“New Hertz”), which was re-named Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. in connection with the Spin-Off, on a one-to-five basis. New Hertz, or Hertz Global, is the “accounting successor” to Old Hertz Holdings. As such, the historical financial information of Hertz reflects the equipment rental business as a discontinued operation and the historical financial information of Hertz Global reflects the equipment rental business and certain parent legal entities as discontinued operations. See Note 3 , " Discontinued Operations ," for additional information. Unless noted otherwise, information disclosed in these notes to the consolidated financial statements pertain to the continuing operations of Hertz and Hertz Global.

Note 2 Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Basis of Presentation

The Company prepares its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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, 2016 condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with information included in the Company's Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2016 (the "2016 Form 10-K"), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March 6, 2017.

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

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Hertz Global include the accounts of Hertz Global and its wholly owned and majority owned U.S. and international subsidiaries. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Hertz include the accounts of Hertz and its wholly owned and majority owned U.S. and international subsidiaries. In the event that the Company is a primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity, the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of the variable interest entity are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements. The Company accounts for its investment in joint ventures using the equity method when it has significant

influence but not control and is not the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Out Of Period Adjustments

The Company has identified a misstatement in its prior period financial statements, related to the income tax provision, that it has corrected in the second quarter of 2017. The cumulative impact of the adjustment was an increase in net loss of approximately $10 million . There was no impact to pre-tax loss from continuing operations. The misstatement relates to an error in the tax provision for U.S. income of a foreign equity investment transaction for fiscal year 2016. The Company considered both quantitative and qualitative factors in assessing the materiality of the item and determined that the misstatement was not material to any prior period and not material to the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.

Correction of Errors

The Company identified classification errors within the investing section of the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2016 . One of the errors related to the Company's Donlen operations and was previously disclosed in the Company's 2016 Form 10‑K. The second error related to the Company's operations in Brazil and was identified during the preparation of the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

The Company considered both quantitative and qualitative factors in assessing the materiality of the classification errors individually, and in the aggregate, and determined that the classification errors were not material and revised the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2016 accordingly. Correction of the errors decreased both revenue earning vehicles expenditures and proceeds from disposals of revenue earning vehicles by $381 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and did not impact total operating, investing or financing cash flows. These revisions had no impact on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2016 or its condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 .

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Adopted

Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting

In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance that simplifies several areas of employee share-based payment accounting, including income taxes, forfeitures, minimum statutory withholding requirements, and classifications within the statement of cash flows. Most significantly, the new guidance eliminates the need to track tax “windfalls” in a separate pool within additional paid-in capital; instead, excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies will be recorded within income tax expense. The Company adopted this guidance in accordance with the effective date on January 1, 2017. The method of adoption with respect to the condensed consolidated balance sheet was a modified retrospective basis. Upon adoption, the Company recorded a deferred tax asset with an offsetting entry to the opening accumulated deficit to recognize net operating loss carryforwards, net of a valuation allowance, attributable to excess tax benefits on stock compensation that had not been previously recognized. Additionally, the Company has elected to continue to estimate forfeitures expected to occur.

The method of adoption with respect to the condensed consolidated statement of operations and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows pertaining to excess tax benefits or deficiencies is on a prospective basis. The method of adoption with respect to the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows pertaining to employee taxes paid is on a retrospective basis and adoption of the guidance did not impact the Company's cash flows.

Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments

In August 2016, the FASB issued guidance that addresses the treatment of certain transactions in statements of cash flows, with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified. These items include debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, proceeds from the settlement of life insurance claims, proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, and distributions received from equity method investees. The Company adopted this guidance early, as permitted, on a retrospective basis, on January 1, 2017. Adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Accounting for Goodwill Impairment

In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance that eliminates the second step of the two-step goodwill impairment test, which requires the determination of the implied fair value of goodwill to measure an impairment. Rather, a goodwill impairment charge will be calculated as the amount by which a reporting unit's carrying amount exceeds its fair value. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. The Company adopted this guidance early, as permitted, on a prospective basis, on January 1, 2017. Adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Scope of Modification Accounting for Share-Based Payment Awards

In May 2017, the FASB issued guidance that amends the scope of modification accounting for share-based payment arrangements. The guidance describes the types of changes to the terms or conditions of share-based payment awards where modification accounting is required to be applied. Modification accounting is not required if the fair value, vesting conditions and classification of the awards are the same immediately before and after the modification. The Company adopted this guidance early, as permitted, on a prospective basis, on April 1, 2017. Adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Not Yet Adopted

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance that will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP. The new guidance applies to all contracts with customers except for leases, insurance contracts, financial instruments, certain nonmonetary exchanges and certain guarantees. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue from customers for the transfer of goods or services equal to the amount that it expects to be entitled to receive for those goods or services. Also, additional disclosures are required about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments. The FASB has issued several amendments and updates to the new revenue standard (collectively, “Topic 606”), including guidance related to when an entity should recognize revenue gross as a principal or net as an agent and how an entity should identify performance obligations. As amended, Topic 606 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted, and allows for full retrospective adoption applied to all periods presented or a modified retrospective adoption with the cumulative effect of initially applying the new guidance as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings recognized at the date of initial application. The Company intends to adopt Topic 606 when effective on January 1, 2018 using a modified retrospective approach applied to all contracts. Prior periods will not be retrospectively adjusted. The Company has reached conclusions on several key accounting assessments related to its revenue recognition, however, it is still finalizing its assessment and quantifying the impacts that adoption of Topic 606 will have on the accounting for its loyalty programs, such as Hertz Gold Plus Rewards, as further described below. The Company is still in the process of determining the level of disaggregated revenue information that it will include in its disclosures and continues to evaluate its internal controls over financial reporting to ensure that controls are in place to prevent or detect material misstatements to the consolidated financial statements upon adoption of Topic 606.

Vehicle Rental Operations

The Company has concluded that revenue earned by operations for the rental of vehicles and from other forms of rental related activities wherein an identified asset is transferred to the customer and the customer has the ability to control that asset is outside of the scope of Topic 606 and will be evaluated under the new lease guidance described in more detail in the “Leases” disclosure below.

Recognition of revenue from other forms of rental related activities that represent a service will not be materially impacted by adoption of Topic 606.

The Company is still in the process of evaluating the breakdown of its vehicle rental revenues into lease and non-lease components.

Recognition of revenue earned through the licensing of the Hertz, Dollar and Thrifty brands under franchise agreements (“franchise fees”) is expected to remain consistent with current revenue recognition guidance except for initial and renewal franchise fees. Currently, initial franchise fees are recorded as deferred income when received and are recognized as revenue when all material upfront services and conditions related to the franchise fee have been substantially performed and renewal franchise fees are recognized as revenue when the license agreements are effective and collectability is reasonably assured. Upon adoption, revenue from initial and renewal franchise fees that relate to a future contract term, for franchises in effect as of January 1, 2018, will be deferred and recognized over the remaining contract term. However, this amount will not be material.

The Company believes that the most significant impact relates to its accounting for reward points earned by customers under its loyalty programs. Upon adoption of Topic 606, each transaction which generates reward points will result in the deferral of revenue equivalent to the retail value of the redemption of the loyalty reward points. The associated revenue will be recognized at the time the customer redeems the loyalty reward points. Under the current guidance, there is no revenue deferral and the Company records an expense associated with the incremental cost of providing

15


HERTZ GLOBAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
THE HERTZ CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
Unaudited

the future rental at the time when the reward points are earned. The Company is in the process of quantifying the impact of adoption of Topic 606.

Fleet Leasing and Management Operations

The Company has concluded that revenue earned by operations for the leasing of vehicles and from other forms of rental related activities wherein an identified asset is transferred to the customer and the customer has the ability to control that asset is outside of the scope of Topic 606 and will be evaluated under the new lease guidance described in more detail in the “Leases” disclosure below. Administration fees and service revenue attributable to the Company's Donlen operations will not be materially impacted by adoption of Topic 606.

Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance that replaces the existing lease guidance in U.S. GAAP. The new guidance establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record on the balance sheet a ROU asset and corresponding lease liability based on the present value of future lease payments for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. This guidance also expands the requirements for lessees to record leases embedded in other arrangements. Additionally, enhanced quantitative and qualitative disclosures surrounding leases are required which provide financial statement users the ability to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those annual periods with early adoption permitted. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for both lessees and lessors for existing leases at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The Company is still in the process of evaluating whether to avail itself of allowable practicable expedients during transition.

Lessee

Adoption of this guidance will result in a material increase in the Company's lease-related assets and liabilities on its balance sheet, primarily for leases of rental locations and other assets. Additionally, adoption of this guidance will impact the statement of cash flows with respect to the presentation of the Company's operating activities, but is not expected to impact its presentation of investing or financing activities. Adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations. The Company has reached conclusions on key accounting assessments related to its leases and is performing an analysis of its lease portfolio to ensure proper application of the new guidance including implementation of internal controls over financial reporting.

Lessor

The Company has concluded that revenue earned by operations for the rental and leasing of vehicles and from other forms of rental related activities wherein an identified asset is transferred to the customer and the customer has the ability to control that asset is within the scope of this guidance and that additional disclosures regarding lease revenue are required upon adoption. There is no impact to the nature, timing or recognition of rental lease revenue upon adoption of this guidance.

Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

In January 2016, the FASB issued guidance that makes several changes to the manner in which financial assets and liabilities are accounted for, including, among other things, a requirement to measure most equity investments at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income (with the exception of investments that are consolidated or accounted for using the equity method or a fair value practicability exception), and amends certain disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements and financial assets and liabilities. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those annual periods using a modified retrospective transition method for most of the requirements. Based on current operations, adoption of this guidance is not expected to impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
Unaudited


Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments

In June 2016, the FASB issued guidance that sets forth a current expected credit loss impairment model for financial assets, which replaces the current incurred loss model. This model requires a financial asset (or group of financial assets), including trade receivables, measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected with an allowance for credit losses deducted from the amortized cost basis. The allowance for credit losses should reflect management’s current estimate of credit losses that are expected to occur over the remaining life of a financial asset. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those annual periods using a modified retrospective transition method. Based on current operations, adoption of this guidance is not expected to impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Tax Consequences of Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory

In October 2016, the FASB issued guidance that requires the tax consequences of intra-entity asset transfers, other than intra-entity asset transfers of inventory, to be recognized when the transfers occur although the profits on the sales of the assets are eliminated in consolidation. Current guidance requires the tax effects of the transfer be recognized later when the assets are sold to a third party or otherwise disposed of. Under the new guidance, the seller's tax expense on the profit and the buyer's deferred tax benefit on the increased tax basis are recognized within the consolidated group when the transfers occur. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those annual periods using a modified retrospective transition method. Based on current operations, adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

Restricted Cash

In November 2016, the FASB issued guidance that clarifies existing guidance on the classification and presentation of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows. The guidance requires entities to include restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in its cash and cash equivalents balances in the statement of cash flows. Under current guidance, the Company presents these transfers within the cash flows from investing and financing sections in its consolidated statements of cash flows. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those annual periods using a retrospective transition method. Adoption of this guidance will impact the reconciliation of the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the Company's statement of cash flows. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the amount of cash and cash equivalents as presented on the statement of cash flows will increase by $1.1 billion . Additionally, transfers between restricted and unrestricted cash will no longer be a component of the Company's investing or financing activities.

Clarifying the Definition of a Business

In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance that clarifies the definition of a business to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The guidance requires an evaluation of whether substantially all of the fair value of assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets. If so, the transaction does not qualify as a business. The guidance also requires an acquired business to include at least one substantive process and narrows the definition of outputs. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those annual periods using a prospective transition method. Based on current operations, adoption of this guidance is not expected to impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Clarifying the Scope of Nonfinancial Asset Derecognition and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets

In February 2017, the FASB issued guidance that clarifies the scope of the established guidance on nonfinancial asset derecognition as well as the accounting for partial sales of nonfinancial assets. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those annual periods. The new guidance

may be adopted on either a full or modified retrospective basis. Based on current operations, adoption of this guidance is not expected to impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost

In March 2017, the FASB issued guidance that requires entities to (1) disaggregate the current-service-cost component from the other components of net benefit cost (the “other components”) and present the current-service-cost component with other current compensation costs for related employees in the income statement and (2) present the other components elsewhere in the income statement and outside of income from operations if such a subtotal is presented. The guidance also requires entities to disclose the income statement lines that contain the other components if they are not presented on described separate lines. In addition, only the service-cost component of net benefit cost is eligible for capitalization, which is a change from current practice, under which entities capitalize the aggregate net benefit cost when applicable. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those annual periods. The guidance affecting the presentation of the components of net periodic benefit cost in the income statement requires use of the retrospective method of adoption and the guidance limiting the capitalization of net periodic benefit cost to the service cost component requires use of the prospective method of adoption. Adoption of this guidance will result in a reclassification of certain amounts from direct vehicle and operating expense and selling, general and administrative expense to other (income) expense, net which does not impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company does not expect the reclassified amounts to be material.

Note 4 Acquisitions and Divestitures

Divestitures

CAR Inc. Investment

In March 2016, the Company sold 204 million shares of common stock of CAR Inc., a publicly traded company on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and extended its commercial agreement with CAR Inc. to 2023, in exchange for $240 million , of which $233 million was allocated to the sale of shares based on the fair value of those shares. The sale of shares resulted in a pre-tax gain of $75 million which has been recognized and recorded in the Company's corporate operations and is included in other (income) expense, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. Additionally, $7 million of the proceeds were allocated to the extension of the commercial agreement which have been deferred and are being recognized over the remaining term of the commercial agreement. The sale of the shares reduced the Company's ownership interest in CAR Inc. to 1.7% and eliminated the Company's ability to exercise significant influence over CAR Inc. As a result, the Company classifies the investment as an available for sale security which is presented within prepaid expenses and other assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016.

In February 2017, the Company sold its remaining shares of common stock of CAR Inc. and no longer has an ownership interest in the entity.

Brazil Operations

During the fourth quarter of 2016, the Company, along with certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries, entered into a definitive stock purchase agreement ("Purchase Agreement") to sell Car Rental Systems do Brasil Locação de Veiculos Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company located in Brazil ("Brazil Operations"), to Localiza Fleet S.A. (“Localiza”), a corporation headquartered in Brazil. As part of the overall agreement, the Company intends to enter into certain ancillary agreements with Localiza, including co-branding in Brazil and use of the Localiza brand in other select markets, customer referrals and the exchange of technology and information, at the closing date of the Purchase Agreement. The proceeds from the sale are expected to be approximately $108 million , which is subject to change in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement. Approximately $12 million of the proceeds will be placed into escrow to secure certain indemnification obligations as defined in the Purchase Agreement. In July 2017, the Company received

Note 6 Goodwill and Intangible Assets

As a result of declines in revenue and profitability of the Company and a decline in the share price of Hertz Global's common stock, the Company tested the recoverability of its goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets as of June 30, 2017 as further described below.

Goodwill

The Company performed a goodwill impairment analysis using the income approach, a measurement using level 3 inputs under the GAAP fair value hierarchy. In performing the impairment analysis, the Company leveraged long-term strategic plans, which are based on strategic initiatives for future profitability growth. The weighted average cost of capital used in the discounted cash flow model was calculated based upon the fair value of the Company's debt and stock price with a debt to equity ratio comparable to the vehicle rental car industry. The results of the Company's analysis indicated that the estimated fair value of each reporting unit was substantially in excess of its carrying value, therefore, the Company determined that no goodwill impairment existed as of June 30, 2017 .

Intangible Assets

The Company performed an impairment analysis of its indefinite-lived intangible assets using the relief from royalty method, a measurement using level 3 inputs under the GAAP fair value hierarchy. As a result of the analysis, the Company concluded that there was an impairment of the Dollar Thrifty tradename in its U.S. Rental Car segment and recorded a charge of $86 million . The impairment was largely due to a decrease in long-term revenue projections coupled with an increase in the weighted average cost of capital. The carrying value of the Dollar Thrifty tradename at June 30, 2017 is approximately $934 million , representing its estimated fair value. A change of 1 percentage point to the weighted average cost of capital assumption used in the impairment analysis could impact the impairment charge by approximately $80 million .

In the case of the Hertz Fleet Lease Funding LP ("HFLF") Medium Term Notes, such notes are repayable from cash flows derived from third-party leases comprising the underlying HFLF collateral pool. The initial maturity date referenced for each series of HFLF Medium Term Notes represents the end of the revolving period for such series, at which time the related notes begin to amortize monthly by an amount equal to the lease collections payable to that series. To the extent the revolving period already has ended, the initial maturity date reflected is July 2017. The second maturity date referenced for each series of HFLF Medium Term Notes represents the date by which Hertz and the investors in the related series expect such series of notes to be repaid in full, which is based upon various assumptions made at the time of pricing of such notes, including the contractual amortization of the underlying leases as well as the assumed rate of prepayments of such leases.  Such maturity reference is to the “expected final maturity date” as opposed to the subsequent “legal final maturity date”. The legal final maturity date is the date on which the relevant indebtedness is legally due and payable. Although the underlying lease cash flows that support the repayment of the HFLF Medium Term Notes may vary, the cash flows generally are expected to approximate a straight line amortization of the related notes from the initial maturity date through the expected final maturity date.

The Company is highly leveraged and a substantial portion of its liquidity needs arise from debt service on its indebtedness and from the funding of its costs of operations, acquisitions and capital expenditures. The Company’s practice is to maintain sufficient liquidity through cash from operations, credit facilities and other financing arrangements, to mitigate any adverse impact on its operations resulting from adverse financial market conditions. Approximately $1.4 billion of vehicle debt will mature between July 1, 2017 and June 30, 2018. The Company has reviewed the vehicle debt that will mature within this timeframe and determined that it is probable that the Company will be able, and has the intent, to refinance these maturities. If the Company were not able to refinance these maturities, it has available liquidity sufficient to repay them at the maturity date. As of June 30, 2017 , the Company was in compliance with its financial maintenance covenant under the senior secured revolving credit facility ("Senior RCF"), see "Covenant Compliance" below.

In June 2017, the Company redeemed all $250 million of its outstanding 4.25% Senior Notes due April 2018 and terminated $150 million of commitments under the Senior RCF, as further described below, and recorded $8 million of charges for early redemption premiums and the write off of deferred financing costs.

Non-Vehicle Debt

Senior Facilities

In June 2017, Hertz terminated $150 million of commitments under the Senior RCF, such that after giving effect to such termination the Senior RCF consists of a $1.55 billion senior secured revolving credit facility.

In February 2017, certain terms of the credit agreement governing the $700 million senior secured term facility (the "Senior Term Loan") and the Senior RCF (together, the "Senior Facilities") were amended with the consent of the required lenders under the Senior RCF and such credit agreement. The amendment, among other things, (i) amends the terms of the financial maintenance covenant for the Senior RCF to test, when applicable, Hertz’s consolidated first lien net leverage ratio in lieu of Hertz’s consolidated total net corporate leverage ratio, (ii) provides that Hertz shall not make dividends and certain restricted payments until a leverage ratio test is satisfied, (iii) adds a new covenant restricting the incurrence of certain corporate indebtedness, (iv) caps the amount of unrestricted cash that may be netted for purposes of calculating the consolidated first lien net leverage ratio at $500 million unless a specified consolidated total gross corporate leverage ratio is met for a specified period and (v) amends certain financial definitions relating to the foregoing.

Senior Notes

In June 2017, Hertz redeemed all $250 million of its outstanding 4.25% Senior Notes due April 2018 (the "April 2018 Notes").

Senior Second Priority Secured Notes

In June 2017, Hertz issued $1.25 billion in aggregate principal amount of 7.625% Senior Second Priority Secured Notes due 2022 (the "Senior Second Priority Secured Notes"), the proceeds of which are restricted under the terms of the credit agreement governing the Senior Facilities, primarily related to the repayment of indebtedness. In June 2017, the Company utilized approximately $266 million of the proceeds to pay the outstanding principal and early redemption premium in connection with the redemption of the April 2018 Notes and fees and expenses in connection with the issuance of the Senior Second Priority Secured Notes. In June 2017, the Company also exercised its right to reduce the amount of available commitments under its Senior RCF by $150 million . As of June 30, 2017, approximately $834 million in proceeds remained from the issuance of the Senior Second Priority Secured Notes and is included in restricted cash and cash equivalents, non-vehicle in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet.

In July 2017, the Company rescinded a conditional notice of full redemption previously delivered in May 2017 to the holders of its 6.75% Senior Notes due April 2019. The Company is continuing to evaluate its use of the proceeds from the issuance of the Senior Second Priority Secured Notes to either repay certain of its indebtedness, which may include, among other options, repayments of outstanding borrowings under the Senior Term Loan and/or repurchases of certain of Hertz’s Senior Notes, or make additional commitment reductions under the Senior RCF.

European Revolving Credit Facility

In February 2017, HHN BV amended its credit agreement (the "European Revolving Credit Facility") to extend the maturity of €235 million of the aggregate maximum borrowings available from October 2017 to January 2019.

Canadian Securitizations

In February 2017, TCL Funding Limited Partnership, a bankruptcy remote, indirect, wholly-owned, special purpose subsidiary of Hertz ("Funding LP") amended its securitization platform in Canada (the "Canadian Securitization") to extend the maturity of CAD $350 million aggregate maximum borrowings available from January 2018 to January 2019.

Capitalized Leases-U.K. Leveraged Financing

In February 2017, the capitalized lease financings outstanding in the United Kingdom ("U.K. Leveraged Financing") were amended to extend the maturity of £250 million aggregate maximum borrowings available from October 2017 to January 2019. In May 2017, the U.K. Leveraged Financing was amended to provide for aggregate maximum leasing capacity (subject to asset availability) of up to £287.5 million during the peak season, for a seasonal commitment period into September 2017.  Following the expiration of the seasonal commitment period, aggregate maximum borrowings available under the U.K Leveraged Financing will revert to up to £250 million .

Borrowing Capacity and Availability

Borrowing capacity and availability comes from the Company's "revolving credit facilities," which are a combination of variable funding asset-backed securitization facilities, cash-flow-based revolving credit facilities and asset-based revolving credit facilities. Creditors under each such asset-backed securitization facility and asset-based revolving credit facility have a claim on a specific pool of assets as collateral. The Company's ability to borrow under each such asset-backed securitization facility and asset-based revolving credit facility is a function of, among other things, the value of the assets in the relevant collateral pool. With respect to each such asset-backed securitization facility and asset-based revolving credit facility, the Company refers to the amount of debt it can borrow given a certain pool of assets as the borrowing base.

The Company refers to "Remaining Capacity" as the maximum principal amount of debt permitted to be outstanding under the respective facility (i.e., with respect to a variable funding asset-backed securitization facility or asset-based revolving credit facility, the amount of debt the Company could borrow assuming it possessed sufficient assets as collateral) less the principal amount of debt then-outstanding under such facility. With respect to a variable funding asset-backed securitization facility or asset-based revolving credit facility, the Company refers to "Availability Under Borrowing Base Limitation" as the lower of Remaining Capacity or the borrowing base less the principal amount of debt then-outstanding under such facility (i.e., the amount of debt that can be borrowed given the collateral possessed at such time). With respect to the Senior RCF, "Availability Under Borrowing Base Limitation" is the same as "Remaining Capacity" since borrowings under the Senior RCF are not subject to a borrowing base.

Note 9 Stock-Based Compensation

The non-cash stock-based compensation expense associated with the Hertz Holdings stock-based compensation plans is recorded at the Hertz level.

Effective January 1, 2017, the Company's board of directors adopted the 2017 Executive Incentive Compensation Plan ("2017 EICP"). The provisions of the plan provide for the pay out of any bonus earned in either cash or performance stock units ("PSUs") for certain groups of employees. The decision regarding the form of payout will be made after the bonus has been earned and as such, the grant date of the PSUs is not established until vested. The potential PSU awards will be based on a monetary amount equivalent to a percentage of employees’ salaries that will be based on

HERTZ GLOBAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
THE HERTZ CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
Unaudited

the achievement of specific performance metrics in 2017. The specific monetary amount will be calculated at the time of grant. The PSUs are intended to be granted in place of cash bonus awards and, therefore, qualify as equity awards. Compensation cost for these awards is recognized over the requisite service period based on the fair value of the award at the end of each reporting period. The Company calculates the anticipated number of awards to be granted based on the bonus dollars expected to be earned divided by the stock price as of the reporting date. The anticipated awards are used to estimate the compensation expense as of the reporting date. Compensation charges will accumulate as a liability until the grant date, at which time the liability will be reclassified to equity. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 , the Company recognized approximately $2 million and $3 million , respectively, of stock-based compensation expense associated with the 2017 EICP. The Company expects approximately 540,000 shares will be granted in connection with this program based on the Company’s stock price as of June 30, 2017 .

Under the Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan, (the "2016 Omnibus Plan"), during the six months ended June 30, 2017 , Hertz Global granted 557,882 non-qualified stock options to certain executives and employees at a weighted average grant date fair value of $9.44 as determined using the Black Scholes option pricing model; 545,283 restricted stock units ("RSUs") at a weighted average grant date fair value of $20.26 ; 423,052 PSUs at a weighted average grant date fair value of $22.08 and 664,643 performance stock awards ("PSAs") at a weighted average grant date fair value of $22.19 , with vesting terms of three to five years. None of the PSUs associated with the 2017 EICP plan are included in the grant amounts above. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 , the Company recognized approximately $3 million and $9 million , respectively, of stock-based compensation expense associated with the 2016 Omnibus Plan.

A summary of the total compensation expense and associated income tax benefits recognized under all plans, including the cost of stock options, RSUs, PSUs and PSAs is as follows:

Note 12 Fair Value Measurements

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The fair value of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, to the extent the underlying liability will be settled in cash, approximates the carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Cash Equivalents and Investments

The Company’s cash equivalents primarily consist of money market accounts. The Company determines the fair value of cash equivalents using a market approach based on quoted prices in active markets.

Investments in equity and other securities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis consist of available for sale securities. The valuation of these securities is based on Level 1 inputs whereby all significant inputs are observable or can be derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale

Assets and liabilities held for sale are associated with the Company's Brazil Operations as further described in Note 4 , " Acquisitions and Divestitures ."

Investments in Related Parties

Investments in related parties are accounted for under the equity method and are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. The Company recognizes an impairment charge whenever there is a decline in value that is determined to be other than temporary.

In April 2016, the Company paid approximately $45 million for an equity method investment. In March 2017, the Company determined it had an other than temporary loss in value of its investment and recorded an impairment charge of $30 million which is included in other (income) expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2017 .

Note 13 Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Commitments

Legal Proceedings

Public Liability and Property Damage

The Company is currently a defendant in numerous actions and has received numerous claims on which actions have not yet been commenced for public liability and property damage arising from the operation of motor vehicles rented from the Company. The obligation for public liability and property damage on self-insured U.S. and international vehicles, as stated on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, represents an estimate for both reported accident claims not yet paid and claims incurred but not yet reported. The related liabilities are recorded on a non-discounted basis. Reserve requirements are based on rental volume and actuarial evaluations of historical accident claim experience and trends, as well as future projections of ultimate losses, expenses, premiums and administrative costs. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the Company's liability recorded for public liability and property damage matters was $423 million and $407 million , respectively. The Company believes that its analysis is based on the most relevant information available, combined with reasonable assumptions, and that the Company may prudently rely on this information to determine the estimated liability. The liability is subject to significant uncertainties. The adequacy of the liability reserve is regularly monitored based on evolving accident claim history and insurance related state legislation changes. If the Company's estimates change or if actual results differ from these assumptions, the amount of the recorded liability is adjusted to reflect these results.

Other Matters

From time to time the Company is a party to various legal proceedings. The Company has summarized below the most significant legal proceedings to which the Company was and/or is a party to during the six months ended June 30, 2017 or the period after June 30, 2017 , but before the filing of this Report on Form 10‑Q.

The Hertz Corporation and Enterprise Rent-A-Car Company (“Enterprise”) was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada (Enterprise became a defendant in a separate action which they have now settled.) The Sobel case is a consumer class action on behalf of all persons who rented vehicles from Hertz at airports in Nevada and were separately charged airport concession

recovery fees by Hertz as part of their rental charges during the class period. In October 2014, the court entered final judgment against the Company and directed Hertz to pay the class approximately $42 million in restitution and $11 million in prejudgment interest, and to pay attorney's fees of $3 million with an additional $3 million to be paid to class counsel from the restitution fund. In November 2014, Hertz timely filed an appeal of that final judgment with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit and the plaintiffs cross appealed the court's judgment seeking to challenge the lower court's ruling that Hertz did not deceive or mislead the class members. Following briefing and oral argument, on January 5, 2017, the Ninth Circuit issued an opinion reversing the District Court’s holdings on liability and remedy and vacating the judgment. The Ninth Circuit also rejected plaintiffs’ cross-appeal, finding that Hertz’s actions were not deceptive or misleading. On January 19, 2017, plaintiffs asked the entire Ninth Circuit, sitting en banc, to rehear the appeal. That petition was rejected on February 15, 2017. Plaintiffs elected not to file a petition seeking a non-mandatory further review by the United States Supreme Court, so this matter is now concluded.

In re Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. Securities Litigation - In November 2013, a purported shareholder class action, Pedro Ramirez, Jr. v. Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., et al., was commenced in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey naming Old Hertz Holdings and certain of its officers as defendants and alleging violations of the federal securities laws. The complaint alleged that Old Hertz Holdings made material misrepresentations and/or omissions of material fact in its public disclosures during the period from February 25, 2013 through November 4, 2013, in violation of Section 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. The complaint sought an unspecified amount of monetary damages on behalf of the purported class and an award of costs and expenses, including counsel fees and expert fees. In June 2014, Old Hertz Holdings responded to the amended complaint by filing a motion to dismiss. After a hearing in October 2014, the court granted Old Hertz Holdings’ motion to dismiss the complaint. The dismissal was without prejudice and plaintiff was granted leave to file a second amended complaint within 30 days of the order. In November 2014, plaintiff filed a second amended complaint which shortened the putative class period such that it was not alleged to have commenced until May 18, 2013 and made allegations that were not substantively very different than the allegations in the prior complaint. In early 2015, this case was assigned to a new federal judge in the District of New Jersey, and Old Hertz Holdings responded to the second amended complaint by filing another motion to dismiss. On July 22, 2015, the court granted Old Hertz Holdings’ motion to dismiss without prejudice and ordered that plaintiff could file a third amended complaint on or before August 22, 2015. On August 21, 2015, plaintiff filed a third amended complaint. The third amended complaint included additional allegations, named additional current and former officers as defendants and expanded the putative class period such that it was alleged to span from February 14, 2013 to July 16, 2015. On November 4, 2015, Old Hertz Holdings filed its motion to dismiss. Thereafter, a motion was made by plaintiff to add a new plaintiff, because of challenges to the standing of the first plaintiff. The court granted plaintiffs leave to file a fourth amended complaint to add the new plaintiff, and the new complaint was filed on March 1, 2016. Old Hertz Holdings and the individual defendants moved to dismiss the fourth amended complaint in its entirety with prejudice on March 24, 2016, and plaintiff filed its opposition to same on May 6, 2016. On June 13, 2016, Old Hertz Holdings and the individual defendants filed their reply briefs in support of their motions to dismiss. The matter is now fully briefed. On April 28, 2017, the court issued an order wherein Old Hertz Holdings' and the individual defendants' motions to dismiss were granted and the plaintiffs’ fourth amended complaint to add a new plaintiff was dismissed with prejudice (the “Order”). On May 30, 2017, the plaintiffs filed a Notice of Appeal with the U. S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. However, the court has not yet released to the parties the expected briefing schedule for this appeal.

Ryanair - In July 2015, Ryanair Ltd. ("Ryanair") filed a complaint against Hertz Europe Limited, a subsidiary of the Company, in the High Court of Justice, Queen’s Bench Division, Commercial Court, Royal Courts of Justice of the United Kingdom alleging breach of contract in connection with Hertz Europe Limited’s termination of its vehicle hire agreement with Ryanair following a contractual dispute with respect to Ryanair’s agreement to begin using third party ticket distributors. The complaint seeks damages, interest and costs, together with attorney fees. The Company believes that it has valid and meritorious defenses and, to that end, it has filed a Defense and Counterclaim. In addition, there have been detailed and intensive exchanges of documents by both parties and taking and exchanging of Witness Statements. The Court has decided to postpone the next

hearing date to March/April 2018.  In the meantime, the parties participated in a mediation in late July 2017.  The Company has established a reserve for the matter which is not material.

The Company intends to assert that it has meritorious defenses in the foregoing matters and the Company intends to defend itself vigorously.

Governmental Investigations - In June 2014, the Company was advised by the staff of the New York Regional Office of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) that it is investigating the events disclosed in certain of the Company’s filings with the SEC. In addition, in December 2014 a state securities regulator requested information and starting in June 2016 the Company has had communications with the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of New Jersey regarding the same or similar events. The investigations and communications generally involve the restatements included in the Old Hertz Holdings Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, as filed with the SEC on July 16, 2015 (the “Old Hertz Holdings 2014 10-K”) and related accounting for prior periods. The Company has and intends to continue to cooperate with all requests related to the foregoing. Due to the stage at which the proceedings are, Hertz is currently unable to predict the likely outcome of the proceedings or estimate the range of reasonably possible losses, which may be material. Among other matters, the restatements included in the Old Hertz Holdings 2014 Form 10-K addressed a variety of accounting matters involving the Company’s Brazil vehicle rental operations.

Additionally, the Company has identified certain activities in Brazil that raise issues under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and may raise issues under other federal and local laws, which the Company has self-reported to appropriate government entities and the processes with these government entities continue. The Company is continuing to investigate these issues. The Company has established a reserve relating to the activities in Brazil which is not material. However, it is possible that an adverse outcome with respect to the activities in Brazil and the other issues discussed herein could exceed the amount accrued in an amount that could be material to the Company's consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in any particular reporting period.

French Antitrust - In February 2015, the French Competition Authority issued a Statement of Objections claiming that several vehicle rental companies, including the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, violated French competition law by receiving historic market information from twelve French airports relating to the vehicle rental companies operating at those airports and by engaging in a concerted practice relating to train station surcharges. In February 2017, the French Competition Authority issued a decision dismissing all such claims against the Company and its subsidiaries.

French Road Tax - The French Tax Authority has challenged the historic practice of several vehicle rental companies, including Hertz France, of registering vehicles in jurisdictions where it is established and where the road tax payable with respect to those vehicles is lower than the road tax payable in the jurisdictions where the vehicles will primarily be used. In respect of a period in 2005, the Company has unsuccessfully appealed the French Tax assessment to the highest Administrative court in France. In respect of a period from 2003 to 2005, following an adverse judgment, the Company appealed the French Tax Authority’s assessment to the Civil Court of Appeal. On March 2, 2017, the Company received an adverse judgment in the road tax appeal from the Civil Court of Appeal in the 2003 to 2005 years. In the third quarter of 2015, following an adverse decision against another industry participant involved in a similar action, the Company recorded charges with respect to this matter of approximately $23 million . In January 2016, the Company made a payment of approximately $9 million .

The Company has established reserves for matters where the Company believes that losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. Other than the aggregate reserve established for claims for public liability and property damage, none of those reserves are material. For matters, including certain of those described above, where the Company has not established a reserve, the ultimate outcome or resolution cannot be predicted at this time, or the amount of ultimate loss, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated. Litigation is subject to many uncertainties and the outcome of the individual litigated matters is not predictable with assurance. It is possible that certain of the actions, claims, inquiries or proceedings, including those discussed above, could be decided unfavorably to the Company or

any of its subsidiaries involved. Accordingly, it is possible that an adverse outcome from such a proceeding could exceed the amount accrued in an amount that could be material to the accompanying consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in any particular reporting period.

Indemnification Obligations

In the ordinary course of business, the Company executed contracts involving indemnification obligations customary in the relevant industry and indemnifications specific to a transaction such as the sale of a business. These indemnification obligations might include claims relating to the following: environmental matters; intellectual property rights; governmental regulations and employment-related matters; customer, supplier and other commercial contractual relationships; and financial matters. Specifically, the Company has indemnified various parties for the costs associated with remediating numerous hazardous substance storage, recycling or disposal sites in many states and, in some instances, for natural resource damages. The amount of any such expenses or related natural resource damages for which the Company may be held responsible could be substantial. In addition, Hertz entered into customary indemnification agreements with Hertz Holdings and certain of the Company's stockholders and their affiliates pursuant to which Hertz Holdings and Hertz will indemnify those entities and their respective affiliates, directors, officers, partners, members, employees, agents, representatives and controlling persons, against certain liabilities arising out of performance of a consulting agreement with Hertz Holdings and each of such entities and certain other claims and liabilities, including liabilities arising out of financing arrangements or securities offerings. The Company has entered into customary indemnification agreements with each of its directors and certain of its officers. Performance under these indemnification obligations would generally be triggered by a breach of terms of the contract or by a third party claim. In connection with the Spin-Off, the Company executed an agreement with Herc Holdings that contains mutual indemnification clauses and a customary indemnification provision with respect to liability arising out of or resulting from assumed legal matters. The Company regularly evaluates the probability of having to incur costs associated with these indemnification obligations and have accrued for expected losses that are probable and estimable.

Note 14 Related Party Transactions

Agreements with the Icahn Group

In the normal course of business, the Company purchases goods and services from entities controlled by Carl C. Icahn and his affiliates, including The Pep Boys - Manny, Moe & Jack. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 , the Company purchased approximately $2 million and $4 million , respectively, worth of goods and services from these related parties.

Transactions between Hertz Holdings and Hertz

On June 30, 2016, Hertz signed a master loan agreement with Hertz Global for a facility size of $425 million with an expiration in June 2017 (the "Old Master Loan"). The interest rate is based on the U.S. Dollar LIBOR rate plus a margin.

In June 2017, upon expiration of the Old Master Loan, Hertz signed a new master loan agreement with Hertz Global for a facility size of $425 million with an expiration in June 2018 (the "Master Loan" and together with the Old Master Loan, the "Loan") where amounts outstanding under the Old Master Loan were transferred to the Master Loan. The interest rate is based on the U.S. Dollar LIBOR rate plus a margin. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , there was $105 million and $102 million , respectively outstanding under the Loan representing advances and any accrued but unpaid interest.

As of both periods ended June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , Hertz has a due to affiliate in the amount of $65 million which represents its tax related liability to Hertz Holdings.

The above amounts are included in equity in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets of Hertz.

Note 15 Earnings (Loss) Per Share - Hertz Global

Basic earnings (loss) per share has been computed based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share has been computed based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents, except when the effect would be anti-dilutive.

As described in Note 9 , " Stock-Based Compensation ", the Company adopted the 2017 EICP on January 1, 2017. PSU awards issued under the 2017 EICP will be included in the denominator of diluted earnings (loss) per share when the required minimum threshold to receive the awards is met. There are no PSU awards issued under the 2017 EICP included in the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 .

Note 17 Guarantor and Non-Guarantor Condensed Consolidating Financial Information - Hertz

The following condensed consolidating financial information presents the Condensed Consolidating Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the Condensed Consolidating Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 and the Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 of (a) The Hertz Corporation, ("Parent”); (b) the Parent's

subsidiaries that guarantee the Senior Notes issued by the Parent ("Guarantor Subsidiaries"); (c) the Parent's subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Senior Notes issued by the Parent ("Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries"); (d) elimination entries necessary to consolidate the Parent with the Guarantor Subsidiaries and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries ("Eliminations"); and of (e) Hertz on a consolidated basis.

Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for using the equity method for purposes of the consolidating presentation. The principal elimination entries relate to investments in subsidiaries and intercompany balances and transactions. The Guarantor Subsidiaries are 100% owned by the Parent and all guarantees are full and unconditional and joint and several. Additionally, substantially all of the assets of the Guarantor Subsidiaries are pledged under the Senior Facilities and Senior Second Priority Secured Notes, and consequently will not be available to satisfy the claims of Hertz's general creditors. In lieu of providing separate unaudited financial statements for the Guarantor Subsidiaries, Hertz has included the accompanying condensed consolidating financial statements based on Rule 3-10 of the SEC's Regulation S-X. Management of Hertz does not believe that separate financial statements of the Guarantor Subsidiaries are material to Hertz's investors; therefore, separate financial statements and other disclosures concerning the Guarantor Subsidiaries are not presented.

During the preparation of the condensed consolidating financial information of The Hertz Corporation and Subsidiaries as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2017, it was determined that prepaid expenses and other assets, deferred income taxes, net, due from affiliates and due to affiliates, and the related eliminations at December 31, 2016 as filed in the Company’s 2016 Form 10-K were improperly calculated, resulting in a $915 million overstatement of prepaid expenses and other assets and due to affiliates of the Parent and an overstatement of due from affiliates and deferred income taxes, net of the Guarantor Subsidiaries. The errors, which the Company has determined are not material to this disclosure, had no impact on the net assets of the Parent or the Guarantor Subsidiaries and are eliminated upon consolidation, and therefore have no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Company has revised the Condensed Consolidating Balance Sheets for the Parent, Guarantor Subsidiaries and Eliminations as of December 31, 2016 to correct for these errors.

During the preparation of the condensed consolidating financial information of The Hertz Corporation and Subsidiaries as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, it was determined that cash flows from operating activities and investing activities for the Parent and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries were misstated as filed in the Company's second quarter 2016 Form 10-Q, resulting in a $411 million overstatement of net cash used in operating activities and a $411 million overstatement of net cash provided by investing activities of the Parent, and a $411 million overstatement of net cash provided by operating activities and a $411 million overstatement of net cash used in investing activities of the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. These errors had no impact to the Guarantor Subsidiaries and no impact to financing activities. These errors, which the Company determined are not material, have no impact on the Company's consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. The Company has revised the Condensed Consolidating Statements of Cash Flows for Parent and Guarantor Subsidiaries for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to correct for these errors.

HERTZ GLOBAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
THE HERTZ CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, "Hertz Global" or the "Company") is a holding company and its principal, wholly-owned subsidiary is The Hertz Corporation Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, "Hertz"). As Hertz Global consolidates Hertz for financial statement purposes, disclosures that relate to activities of Hertz also apply to Hertz Global, unless otherwise noted. Hertz comprises approximately the entire balance of Hertz Global's assets, liabilities and operating cash flows. In addition, Hertz's operating revenues and operating expenses comprise nearly 100% of Hertz Global's revenues and operating expenses. As such, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") that follows for Hertz also applies to Hertz Global in all material respects and differences between the operations and results of Hertz and Hertz Global are separately disclosed and explained. We sometimes use the words "we", "our," "us," and the "Company" in this MD&A for disclosures that relate to all of Hertz and Hertz Global.

Management’s discussion and analysis ("MD&A") should be read in conjunction with the MD&A presented in our 2016 Form 10‑K and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2017 (this "Report"), which include additional information about our accounting policies, practices and the transactions underlying our financial results. The preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes including vehicle depreciation and various claims and contingencies related to lawsuits, taxes, environmental and other matters arising during the normal course of business. We apply our best judgment, our knowledge of existing facts and circumstances and our knowledge of actions that we may undertake in the future in determining the estimates that will affect our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis using our historical experience, as well as other factors we believe to be appropriate under the circumstances, such as current economic conditions, and adjust or revise our estimates as circumstances change. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results may differ from these estimates.

In this MD&A we refer to certain key metrics and Non-GAAP measures, including the following:
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 Transaction Day ("Total RPD", also referred to as "pricing") - important to management and investors as it represents a measurement of the changes in underlying pricing in the vehicle rental business and encompasses the elements in vehicle rental pricing that management has the ability to control.
Total Revenue Per Unit Per Month ("Total RPU") - important to management and investors as it provides a measure of revenue productivity relative to the total number of vehicles in our fleet whether owned or leased ("average vehicles" or "fleet capacity").
Transaction Days - important to management and investors as it represents the number of revenue generating days ("volume"). It is used as a component to measure Total RPD and vehicle utilization. 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.
Vehicle Utilization - important to management and investors because it is the measurement of the proportion of our vehicles that are being used to generate revenues relative to fleet capacity. Higher vehicle utilization means more vehicles are being utilized to generate revenue.
Net Depreciation Per Unit Per Month - important to management and investors as depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges, is one of our largest expenses for the vehicle 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 vehicles and facilitates a comparison with other participants in the vehicle rental industry.

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

Key metrics and Non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation and should not be considered superior to, or a substitute for, financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The above key metrics and Non-GAAP measures are defined, and the Non-GAAP measures are reconciled to their most comparable U.S. GAAP measure, in the "Footnotes to the Results of Operations and Selected Operating Data by Segment Tables" section of this MD&A.

OUR COMPANY

Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. was incorporated in Delaware in 2015 to serve as the top-level holding company for Rental Car Intermediate Holdings, LLC which wholly owns Hertz, Hertz Global's primary operating company. Hertz was incorporated in Delaware in 1967 and is a successor to corporations that have been engaged in the vehicle rental and leasing business since 1918.

We operate our vehicle rental business globally through the Hertz, Dollar and Thrifty brands from approximately 9,700 corporate and franchisee locations in North America, Europe, Latin America, Africa, Asia, Australia, The Caribbean, the Middle East and New Zealand. We are one of the largest worldwide airport general use vehicle rental companies and our Hertz brand name is one of the most recognized in the world, signifying leadership in quality rental services and products. We have an extensive network of rental locations in the United States ("U.S.") and in all major European markets. We believe that we maintain one of the leading airport vehicle rental brand market shares, by overall reported revenues, in the U.S. and at major airports in Europe where data regarding vehicle rental concessionaire activity is available. We are a leading provider of comprehensive, integrated vehicle leasing and fleet management solutions through our Donlen subsidiary.

OVERVIEW OF OUR BUSINESS AND OPERATING ENVIRONMENT

We are engaged principally in the business of renting and leasing vehicles primarily through our Hertz, Dollar and Thrifty brands. In addition to vehicle rental, we provide comprehensive, integrated vehicle leasing and fleet management solutions through our Donlen subsidiary. We have a diversified revenue base and a highly variable cost structure and are able to adjust fleet capacity, the most significant determinant of our costs, over time to meet expectations of market demand. Our profitability is primarily a function of the volume, mix and pricing of rental transactions and the utilization of vehicles, the related ownership cost of vehicles and other operating costs. Significant changes in the purchase price or residual values of vehicles or interest rates can have a significant effect on our profitability depending on our ability to adjust pricing for these changes. We continue to balance our mix of non-program and program vehicles based on market conditions. Our business requires significant expenditures for vehicles, and consequently we require substantial liquidity to finance such expenditures. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources" below.

Our strategy includes optimization of our vehicle rental operations, disciplined performance management and evaluation of all locations and the pursuit of same-store sales growth.

Our total revenues primarily are derived from rental and related charges and consist of:

Vehicle rental revenues - revenues from all company-operated vehicle 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 vehicle 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 vehicle sales channel and certain royalty fees from our franchisees (such fees, including initial franchise fees, are less than 2% of total revenues each period);

All other operations revenues - revenues from vehicle leasing and fleet management services and other business activities.

HERTZ GLOBAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
THE HERTZ CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

Our expenses primarily consist of:

Direct vehicle and 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; and other costs relating to the operation and rental of revenue earning vehicles, such as damage, maintenance and fuel costs);

Depreciation expense and lease charges, net relating to revenue earning vehicles (including net gains or losses on the disposal of such vehicles);

Selling, general and administrative expenses; and

Interest expense, net.

Our Business Segments

We have identified three reportable segments, which are organized based on the products and services provided by our operating segments and the geographic areas in which our operating segments conduct business, as follows:
U.S. Rental Car ("U.S. RAC") - Rental of vehicles, as well as sales of ancillary products and services, in the U.S.;
International Rental Car ("International RAC") - Rental and leasing of vehicles, as well as sales of ancillary products and services, internationally; and
All Other Operations - Comprised of our Donlen business, which provides vehicle leasing and fleet management services, and other business activities .
In addition to the above reportable segments, we have Corporate operations. We assess performance and allocate resources based upon the financial information for our operating segments.

Fleet

We periodically review the efficiencies of an optimal mix between program and non-program vehicles in our fleet. Program vehicles generally provide us with flexibility to increase or reduce the size of our fleet based on economic demand. When we increase the percentage of program vehicles, the average age of our fleet decreases since the average holding period for program vehicles is shorter than for non-program vehicles. We dispose of our non-program vehicles via auction, dealer-direct and our retail locations. Non-program vehicles disposed of through our retail outlets allow us the opportunity for ancillary revenue, such as warranty and financing and title fees. We adjust the ratio of program and non-program vehicles in our fleet as needed based on contract negotiations and the economic environment pertaining to our industry.

Seasonality

Our vehicle rental operations are a seasonal business, with decreased levels of business in the winter months and heightened activity during the spring and summer peak ("our peak season") for the majority of countries where we generate our revenues. To accommodate increased demand, we increase our available fleet and staff during the second and third quarters of the year. As business demand declines, vehicles and staff are decreased accordingly. A number of our other major operating costs, including airport concession fees, commissions and vehicle liability expenses, are directly related to revenues or transaction volumes. In addition, our management expects to utilize enhanced process improvements, including utilization initiatives and the use of our information technology systems, to help manage our variable costs. Generally, between 70% and 75% of our annual operating costs represent variable costs, while the remaining costs are fixed or semi-fixed. We also maintain a flexible workforce, with a significant number of part-time and seasonal workers. Certain operating expenses, including real estate taxes, rent, insurance, utilities, maintenance and other facility-related expenses, the costs of operating our information technology systems and minimum staffing costs, remain fixed and cannot be adjusted for seasonal demand.

2017 Operating Overview

The following provides an overview of our business and financial performance and key factors influencing our results:

Total revenues for U.S. RAC for the second quarter of 2017 decrease d by 4% compared to 2016 driven by a 2% decline in Total RPD and a 3% decrease in transaction days. Total revenues for U.S. RAC for the first half of 2017 decrease d by 4% as compared to the first half of 2016 driven by a 2% decline in Total RPD and a 2% decrease in transaction days;

Depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges, net for U.S. RAC increase d 26% to $524 million from $417 million for the second quarter of 2017 versus 2016 and increase d 22% to $1.0 billion from $836 million for the first half of 2017 versus 2016 . Net depreciation per unit per month in U.S. RAC increase d 27% to $353 from $278 for the second quarter of 2017 versus 2016 and increase d 21% to $351 from $290 for the first half of 2017 versus 2016 . The increases in per vehicle depreciation rates are the result of shortened hold periods on certain non-program vehicles as we rebalanced the fleet, our onboarding of a richer mix of premium model year 2017 vehicles, and declining residual values;

Total revenues for International RAC increase d 1% for the second quarter of 2017 versus 2016 . Excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rates, total revenues for International RAC increase d $21 million , or 4% for the second quarter 2017 versus 2016 , driven by a 6% increase in transaction days, partially offset by a 1% decrease in Total RPD. Total revenues for International RAC decrease d 2% for the first half of 2017 versus 2016. Excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rates, total revenues for International RAC increase d $6 million , or 1% for the first half of 2017 versus 2016 , driven by a 4% increase in transaction days, partially offset by a 3% decrease in Total RPD;

Depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges, net for International RAC increase d 2% to $100 million from $98 million for the second quarter of 2017 versus 2016 and increase d 1% to $185 million from $184 million for the first half of 2017 versus 2016 . Net depreciation per unit per month for International RAC increase d 2% to $172 from $168 for the second quarter of 2017 versus 2016 and was comparable for the first half of 2017 versus 2016 ;

International RAC's public liability and property damage (“PLPD”) expense decreased $17 million in the second quarter of 2017 versus 2016 and decreased $14 million during the first half of 2017 versus 2016 . The decreases are primarily related to $20 million in unanticipated charges recorded in the second quarter of 2016 resulting from adverse experience and case development of historical claims, primarily in the United Kingdom, and a $5 million favorable impact in the second quarter of 2017 as a result of actions taken by management to improve claims handling in Europe and changes in business practices, including the closure of certain locations with unfavorable PLPD experience, partially offset by a $5 million accrual for PLPD related to a terrorist event in the second quarter of 2017;

Recorded $86 million of impairment charges in the second quarter 2017 resulting from the impairment of the Dollar Thrifty tradename versus $3 million of net impairments and asset write-downs in the second quarter 2016 . Recorded $116 million of impairment charges during the first half of 2017 resulting from the $86 million impairment of the Dollar Thrifty tradename and a $30 million impairment of an equity method investment during the first half of 2017 compared to $3 million of net impairments and asset write-downs during the first half of 2016;

Recorded $20 million and $39 million during the second quarter and first half of 2017 , respectively, in expenses associated with our finance and information technology transformation programs, both of which are multi-year initiatives to upgrade and modernize the Company's systems and processes, compared to $19 million and $26 million during the second quarter and first half of 2016 , respectively;

During the first half of 2017 , we sold approximately 9 million shares of common stock of CAR Inc., a publicly traded company on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, for net proceeds of approximately $9 million, recognizing a pre-tax gain of $3 million. During the first half of 2016 , we sold 204 million shares of common stock of CAR Inc. for net proceeds of approximately $233 million, recognizing a pre-tax gain of $75 million. There were no sales of common stock of CAR Inc. in the second quarter of 2017 or 2016 ;

We issued $1.25 billion in aggregate principal amount of 7.625% Senior Second Priority Secured Notes due 2022, utilizing a portion of the proceeds to decrease near term debt maturities by approximately $250 million following redemption of the April 2018 Notes and to terminate commitments under the Senior RCF by $150 million; and

Recorded $8 million of charges for early redemption premiums and write off of deferred financing costs in the second quarter and first half of 2017 as a result of redeeming the April 2018 Notes and terminating commitments under the Senior RCF, compared to $20 million in the second quarter and first half of 2016 as a result of paying off the Senior Term Facility and various vehicle debt refinancings.

NM - Not meaningful

Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 Compared with Three Months Ended June 30, 2016

Total revenues decrease d $46 million , or 2% , due primarily to decreases in our U.S. RAC revenues of $65 million , partially offset by a $16 million increase in our All Other Operations segment revenues and a $3 million increase in our International RAC revenues. Total RPD in our U.S. RAC segment declined 2% due to a decline in ancillary revenues and a change in customer mix. Volume for U.S. RAC decrease 3% comprised of a decrease of 2% for our airport business and 4% for our off airport business which reflects the challenging year over year comparison in replacement rentals due to a large number of customer vehicle recalls in the second quarter of 2016. Revenues in our All Other Operations business increased primarily due to an increase in Donlen's leasing and services volume . Excluding an $18 million impact of foreign currency exchange rates, International RAC revenues increase d $21 million , or 4% , driven by a 6% increase in transaction days partially offset by a 1% decrease in Total RPD for the segment.

The decrease in direct vehicle and operating expenses ("DOE") of $12 million , or 1% , was primarily due to a decrease in our International RAC segment of $19 million , partially offset by an increase in our All Other Operations segment of $8 million while the U.S. RAC segment remained flat. Excluding the $11 million impact of foreign currency exchange rates, DOE for International RAC decrease d $8 million , or 2% , due to a $17 million decrease in PLPD expense, partially offset by an increase of $10 million in transaction variable costs due to higher rental volume in the second quarter of 2017 versus 2016. The increase in our All Other Operations segment is due to charges related to new leases entered into during the second quarter of 2017 .

Depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges, net increase d $114 million , or 18% , primarily due to a $107 million increase in our U.S. RAC segment resulting from higher per vehicle depreciation rates, slightly offset by a smaller fleet.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) decrease d $11 million , or 5% , in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the second quarter of 2016 , primarily due to a decrease of approximately $32 million in restructuring

The above changes primarily related to our U.S. RAC segment and Corporate.

Vehicle interest expense, net increase d $10 million , or 14% , in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the second quarter of 2016 primarily due to higher market interest rates, higher rates associated with increasing the mix of medium term funding and interest related to the European Vehicle Notes that were issued in the third quarter of 2016, partially offset by a loss on extinguishment of debt for terminated vehicle debt in the second quarter of 2016 with no comparable loss in the second quarter of 2017.

Non-vehicle interest expense, net decrease d $27 million , or 26% , in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the second quarter of 2016 , primarily due to the termination of the $2.1 billion of Senior Credit Facilities in June 2016, the 2016 refinancings of certain Senior Notes with the lower rate Senior Term Loan and 5.50% Senior Notes due 2024 and lower losses on the extinguishment of debt in the second quarter of 2017 versus 2016.

We had intangible asset impairments of $86 million related to the Dollar Thrifty tradename for the second quarter of 2017.

We had other expense of $4 million for the second quarter of 2017 , primarily comprised of a $4 million fair value adjustment of our Brazil operations in connection with its classification as held for sale. In the second quarter of 2016 , we had other expense of $1 million .

The effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2017 was 35% compared to 20% in the second quarter of 2016 . The Company recorded a tax benefit of $86 million in the second quarter of 2017 and $7 million in the second quarter of 2016 . The $79 million increase in the income tax benefit is the result of the composition of earnings and lower worldwide pre-tax income, offset by discrete items in the quarter, attributable to an out of period adjustment and due in part to tax charges from stock compensation.

The results for discontinued operations are associated with the activities of the Old Hertz Holdings equipment rental business which was spun-off on June 30, 2016.

Adjusted pre-tax loss was $81 million in the second quarter of 2017 compared to adjusted pre-tax income of $55 million in the second quarter of 2016 . See footnote (a) in the "Footnotes to the Results of Operations and Selected Operating Data by Segment Tables" for a summary and description of reconciling adjustments on a consolidated basis.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 Compared with Six Months Ended June 30, 2016

Total revenues decrease d $113 million , or 3% , due primarily to decreases in our U.S. RAC and International RAC revenues of $118 million and $18 million , respectively, partially offset by a $23 million increase in our All Other Operations segment revenues. Total RPD in our U.S. RAC segment decrease d 2% due to a decline in ancillary revenues and customer mix, primarily driven by a change from higher yielding corporate contracted and retail rentals to lower yielding domestic tour, opaque and ride-hailing vehicle rentals. Volume for U.S. RAC decrease 2% driven by declines of 2% in each of our airport and off airport businesses. The decline in our off airport volume reflects the challenging year over year comparison in replacement rentals due to a large number of customer vehicle recalls in the first half of 2016. Excluding a $24 million impact of foreign currency exchange rates, International RAC revenues increase d $6 million , or 1% , driven by a 4% increase in transaction days partially offset by a 3% decrease in Total RPD for the segment. Total revenues in our All Other Operations segment increase d primarily due to an increase in Donlen's leasing and services volume .

The decrease in DOE of $38 million , or 2% , was primarily due to a decrease in our International RAC segment and our corporate operations of $31 million and $9 million , respectively, while the U.S. RAC segment remained flat in the first half of 2017 compared to the first half of 2016 . Excluding the $17 million impact of foreign currency exchange rates, DOE for International RAC decrease d $14 million , or 2% , due to a $14 million decrease in PLPD expense and a $5 million decrease in vehicle damage expense, partially offset by an increase of $9 million in transaction variable

costs due to higher rental volume. The decrease in DOE for our corporate operations is due mainly to charges related to the Spin-Off in the first half of 2016 with no comparable charges in the first half of 2017.

Depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges, net increase d $199 million , or 16% , primarily due to a $187 million increase in our U.S. RAC segment resulting from higher per vehicle depreciation rates combined with a slightly larger fleet.

SG&A decrease d $17 million , or 4% , in the first half of 2017 compared to the first half of 2016 , primarily due to a decrease of approximately $50 million in restructuring related, incentive compensation and other expenses, partially offset by a $21 million increase in advertising expense, charges for labor-related matters and litigation settlements related to various cases and a $13 million increase in information technology transformation program costs recorded during the first half of 2017. The above changes primarily related to our U.S. RAC segment. As discussed above, we incurred higher information technology transformation program costs in the first half of 2017 versus the first half 2016, and we expect to see continued increases in SG&A expenses for information technology investments for the remainder of 2017 and in 2018.

Vehicle interest expense, net increase d $13 million , or 9% , in the first half of 2017 compared to the first half of 2016 primarily due to higher market interest rates and higher rates associated with increasing the mix of medium term funding and interest related to the European Vehicle Notes that were issued in the third quarter of 2016, partially offset by a loss on extinguishment of debt for terminated vehicle debt in the first half of 2016 with no comparable loss recorded in the first half of 2017.

Non-vehicle interest expense, net decrease d $51 million , or 28% , in the first half of 2017 compared to the first half of 2016 , primarily due to the termination of the $2.1 billion of Senior Credit Facilities in June 2016, the 2016 refinancings of certain Senior Notes with the lower rate Senior Term Loan and 5.50% Senior Notes due 2024 and lower losses on the extinguishment of debt in the first half of 2017 versus 2016.

We had intangible asset impairments of $86 million related to the Dollar Thrifty tradename for the first half of 2017.

We had other expense of $31 million for the first half of 2017 , primarily comprised of a $30 million impairment of an equity method investment. Other income of $89 million for the first half of 2016 was primarily comprised of a $75 million gain on the sale of common stock of CAR Inc. and a $9 million settlement gain from an eminent domain case at one of our airport locations.

The effective tax rate in the first half of 2017 was 29% compared to 29% in the first half of 2016 . The Company recorded a tax benefit of $157 million in the first half of 2017 and $32 million in the first half of 2016 . The $125 million increase in the income tax benefit is the result of composition of earnings and lower worldwide pre-tax income, offset by discrete items in the first half of 2017, attributable to an out of period adjustment and due in part to tax charges from stock compensation.

The results for discontinued operations are associated with the activities of the Old Hertz Holdings equipment rental business which was spun-off on June 30, 2016.

Adjusted pre-tax loss was $293 million in the first half of 2017 compared to $53 million in the first half of 2016 . See footnote (a) in the "Footnotes to the Results of Operations and Selected Operating Data by Segment Tables" for a summary and description of reconciling adjustments on a consolidated basis.

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - HERTZ GLOBAL

which are deemed discontinued operations of Hertz Global but not Hertz. There are no incremental net losses for Hertz Global in the second quarter 2016.

In the second quarter and first half of 2017 , Hertz Global has interest expense, net of $1 million and $2 million , respectively that is incremental to the amounts shown for Hertz. These amounts represent interest associated with amounts outstanding under the master loan agreement between the companies. Hertz includes this amount as interest income in its statement of operations but this amount is eliminated in consolidation for purposes of Hertz Global.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 Compared with Three Months Ended June 30, 2016

Total U.S. RAC revenues were  $1.5 billion  in the second quarter of 2017 , a decrease of $65 million , or  4% , from the second quarter of 2016 . Total RPD decrease d 2% due to a decline in ancillary revenues and customer mix, primarily driven by a change from higher yielding corporate contracted and retail rentals to lower yielding domestic tour and ride-hailing vehicle rentals. Transaction days decrease d 3% comprised of a decrease of 2% for our airport business and 4% for our off airport business which reflects the challenging year over year comparison in replacement rentals due to a large number of customer vehicle recalls in the second quarter of 2016. Off airport revenues comprised 28% of total revenues for the segment in the second quarter of 2017 and 2016 .

DOE for U.S. RAC was comparable year over year primarily due to the following:

Vehicle related expenses were comparable with the second quarter of 2016.

Personnel related expenses increased $12 million compared to the second quarter of 2016 , primarily due to an increase of $9 million in field wages due in part to new customer-oriented initiatives and an increase of $8 million in benefits expense, mainly resulting from an increase in the workers compensation reserve, partially offset by a $5 million decrease in variable incentive compensation.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

Transaction variable expenses decreased $18 million primarily due to decreases in optional insurance liability expense of $21 million due to favorable adjustments based on historical experience and a decrease in transaction days discussed above, partially offset by higher fuel expense of $4 million due to higher market fuel prices compared to the second quarter of 2016.

Other direct vehicle and operating expenses increased $9 million year over year primarily due to increased facility costs of $6 million, mainly related to accelerated depreciation at certain of our airport locations as a result of the Ultimate Choice program, and a $4 million increase in IT charges.

Depreciation rates are reviewed on a 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. Depreciation rates being used to compute the provision for depreciation of revenue earning vehicles are adjusted on certain vehicles in our vehicle rental operations to reflect changes in the estimated residual values to be realized when revenue earning vehicles are sold. Based on the reviews completed during the second quarter of 2017 and 2016, depreciation rate changes in our U.S. RAC operations resulted in a net increase in depreciation expense of $24 million and $12 million , respectively. The rate changes reflect shortened hold periods on certain non-program vehicles as we rebalanced the fleet, our onboarding of a richer mix of premium model year 2017 vehicles, and declining residual values.

Depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges, net for U.S. RAC increase d by $107 million , or 26% , in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the second quarter of 2016 . Net depreciation per unit per month increase d to $353 in the second quarter of 2017 compared to $278 in the second quarter of 2016 . The increase year over year is primarily the result of higher per vehicle depreciation rates, slightly offset by a smaller fleet.

There was a loss before income taxes for U.S. RAC of $146 million in the second quarter of 2017 compared to income before income taxes of $104 million in the second quarter of 2016. The $250 million decrease year over year is primarily due to the impact of increased depreciation expense on our revenue earning vehicles, the $86 million impairment of the Dollar Thrifty tradename and lower revenues. The above were partially offset by a decrease of $10 million in interest expense, net. SG&A for the segment decrease d $2 million year over year, primarily resulting from $16 million of decreases in restructuring related, information technology transformation program costs, incentive compensation and other expenses, partially offset by a $14 million increase due to charges for labor-related matters and advertising expense recorded during the second quarter of 2017.

Adjusted pre-tax loss for U.S. RAC was $37 million in the second quarter of 2017 compared to adjusted pre-tax income of $143 million in the second quarter of 2016 . See footnote (a) in the "Footnotes to the Results of Operations and Selected Operating Data by Segment Tables" for a summary and description of reconciling adjustments on a consolidated basis.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 Compared with Six Months Ended June 30, 2016

Total U.S. RAC revenues were  $2.9 billion  in the first half of 2017 , a decrease of $118 million , or  4% , from the first half of 2016 . Total RPD decrease d 2% due to a decline in ancillary revenues and customer mix, primarily driven by a change from higher yielding corporate contracted and retail rentals to lower yielding domestic tour, opaque and ride-hailing vehicle rentals. Transaction days decrease d 2% driven by declines of 2% in each of our airport and off airport businesses. The decline in our off airport volume reflects the challenging year over year comparison in replacement rentals due to a large number of customer vehicle recalls in the first half of 2016. Off airport revenues comprised 28% of total revenues for the segment in the first half of 2017 as compared to 27% for the first half of 2016 .

DOE for U.S. RAC was comparable year over year primarily due to the following:

Vehicle related expenses decreased $5 million year over year primarily due to:

Decreased collision and short term maintenance expense of $10 million resulting from improved customer collections on damage claims resulting from process improvements and a decrease in the

costs to prepare program vehicles for turn-back due to a reduction in the number of program vehicles returned to the manufacturer year over year.

Increased maintenance expense of $4 million for the reconditioning of certain vehicles.

Personnel related expenses increased $8 million compared to the first half of 2016 , primarily due to a $11 million increase in field wages due in part to new customer-oriented initiatives and a $9 million increase in benefits expense, primarily resulting from an increase in the workers compensation reserve, partially offset by a $12 million decrease in variable incentive compensation.

Transaction variable expenses decreased $18 million primarily due to decreases in optional insurance liability expense of $21 million due to favorable adjustments based on historical experience and a decrease in transaction days discussed above, and decreased concessions and credit card expense of $4 million, partially offset by higher fuel expense of $8 million due to higher market fuel prices compared to the first half of 2016.

Other direct vehicle and operating expenses increased $9 million year over year primarily due to $5 million of charges related to our navigational service offerings.

Depreciation rates are reviewed on a 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. Depreciation rates being used to compute the provision for depreciation of revenue earning vehicles are adjusted on certain vehicles in our vehicle rental operations to reflect changes in the estimated residual values to be realized when revenue earning vehicles are sold. Based on the reviews completed during the first half of 2017 and 2016, depreciation rate changes in our U.S. RAC operations resulted in a net increase in depreciation expense of $62 million and $45 million , respectively. The rate changes reflect shortened hold periods on certain non-program vehicles as we rebalanced the fleet, our onboarding of a richer mix of premium model year 2017 vehicles, and declining residual values.

Depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges, net for U.S. RAC increase d by $187 million , or 22% , in the first half of 2017 compared to the first half of 2016 . Net depreciation per unit per month increase d to $351 in the first half of 2017 compared to $290 in the first half of 2016 . The increase year over year is primarily the result of higher per vehicle depreciation rates combined with a slightly larger fleet.

There was a loss before income taxes for U.S. RAC of $278 million in the first half of 2017 compared to income before income taxes of $82 million in the first half of 2016. The $360 million decrease year over year is due primarily to the impact of increased depreciation expense on our revenue earning vehicles, lower revenues and the $86 million impairment of the Dollar Thrifty tradename. The above were partially offset by a decrease of $25 million in interest expense, net and a $11 million decrease in SG&A for the segment, primarily resulting from $21 million of decreases in restructuring related, incentive compensation and other expenses and a $9 million decrease in information technology transformation program costs, partially offset by a $19 million increase due to charges for labor-related matters and advertising expense recorded during the first half of 2017. Additionally, in the first half of 2016 we had other income of $11 million primarily related to an eminent domain case at one of our airport locations with no comparable charges in 2017.

Adjusted pre-tax loss for U.S. RAC was $152 million in the first half of 2017 compared to adjusted pre-tax income of $138 million in the first half of 2016 .

Excluding an $18 million impact of foreign currency exchange rates, revenues increase d $21 million or 4% , driven by a 6% increase in transaction days primarily due to the impact in Europe of the Easter holiday falling in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the first quarter of 2016 and growth in our value brands, partially offset by a 1% decrease in Total RPD.

DOE for International RAC decrease d $19 million in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the second quarter of 2016 . Excluding the $11 million impact of foreign currency exchange rates, direct vehicle and operating expenses decrease d $8 million , or 2% , versus the prior year primarily due to a $17 million decrease in PLPD expense, partially offset by an increase of $10 million in transaction variable costs, such as field compensation, concessions and facilities due to higher rental volume in the second quarter of 2017. The decrease in PLPD expense primarily represents a $20 million charge in the second quarter of 2016 resulting from adverse experience and case development, primarily in the United Kingdom, combined with a $5 million reduction in PLPD expense in the second quarter 2017 as a result of actions taken by management to improve claims handling in Europe and changes in business practices, including the closure of certain locations with unfavorable PLPD experience, partially offset by a $5 million accrual for PLPD related to a terrorist event in the second quarter of 2017.

There was income before income taxes for International RAC of $37 million in the first half of 2017 compared to $27 million in the first half of 2016 . The $10 million increase year over year is primarily due to decrease d direct vehicle and operating expenses discussed above and a decrease of $4 million in SG&A driven by the impact of exchange rates, incentive compensation and other general expenses, partially offset by lower revenues and a $5 million increase in interest expense, net primarily related to the European Vehicle Notes which were issued in the third quarter of 2016.

Adjusted pre-tax income for International RAC was $52 million in the first half of 2017 compared to $36 million in the first half of 2016 . See footnote (a) in the "Footnotes to the Results of Operations and Selected Operating Data by Segment Tables" for a summary and description of reconciling adjustments on a consolidated basis.

All Other Operations has favorable re sults in the second quarter of 2017 as compared to the second quarter of 2016 and favorable results in the first half of 2017 as compared to the first half of 2016 . Revenues were higher primarily due to an increase in Donlen's leasing and services volume due to new business origination and existing customer growth, and were partially offset by increases in DOE due to charges related to new leases entered into during the second quarter of 2017 and increases in vehicle depreciation due to the growth of leased fleet.

Footnotes to the Results of Operations and Selected Operating Data by Segment Tables

(a)
Adjusted pre-tax income (loss) is calculated as income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes plus non-cash acquisition accounting charges, debt-related charges relating to the amortization and write-off of debt financing costs and debt discounts, goodwill, intangible and tangible asset impairments and write-downs and certain one-time charges and non-operational items. Adjusted pre-tax income (loss) is important 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. When evaluating our operating performance, investors should not consider adjusted pre-tax income (loss) in isolation of, or as a substitute for, measures of our financial performance, such as net income (loss) from continuing operations or income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes. The contribution of our reportable segments to adjusted pre-tax income (loss) and reconciliation to the most comparable consolidated GAAP measure are presented below:

(b)
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. 

(c)
Average vehicles is determined using a simple average of the number of vehicles at the beginning and end of a given period. Among other things, average vehicles is used to calculate our vehicle utilization which represents the portion of our vehicles that are being utilized to generate revenue. Vehicle utilization is calculated by dividing total transaction days by available car days. The calculation of vehicle utilization is shown in the table below.

Total RPD is a key metric that is calculated as total revenue less ancillary retail vehicle sales revenue, divided by the total number of transaction days, with all periods adjusted to eliminate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Our management believes eliminating the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is useful in analyzing underlying trends. This statistic is important to our management and investors as it represents a measurement of the changes in underlying pricing in the vehicle rental business and encompasses the elements in vehicle rental pricing that management has the ability to control. The following tables reconcile our rental car segment revenues to our total rental revenue and total revenue per transaction day (based on December 31, 2016 foreign currency exchange rates) for the periods shown:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our U.S. and international operations are funded by cash provided by operating activities and by extensive financing arrangements maintained by us in the U.S. and internationally.

As of June 30, 2017 , we had $1.1 billion of cash and cash equivalents and $1.1 billion of restricted cash. Of these amounts as of June 30, 2017 , $119 million of cash and cash equivalents and $49 million of restricted cash was held

by our subsidiaries outside of the U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico. Repatriation of some of these funds under current regulatory and tax law for use in domestic operations would expose us to additional taxes. Except for cash and cash equivalents in Brazil, due to the pending sale of our operations in that foreign jurisdiction, we consider cash held by our subsidiaries outside of the U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico to be permanently reinvested.

We believe that cash and cash equivalents generated by our U.S. operations, cash received on the disposal of vehicles, together with amounts available under various liquidity facilities and refinancing options available to us in the U.S. capital markets, will be sufficient to fund operating requirements for the next twelve months.

Cash Flows - Hertz

As of June 30, 2017 , Hertz had cash and cash equivalents of $1.1 billion , an increase of $325 million from $816 million as of December 31, 2016 . The following table summarizes the net change in cash and cash equivalents for the periods shown:

During the six months ended June 30, 2017 , there was a reduction of cash inflows of $62 million from net income excluding non-cash items, partially offset by a $32 million reduction in cash outflows from working capital accounts period over period. The change from working capital accounts is due primarily to a $ 91 million increase in cash related to non-vehicle accounts payable from customer prepayments for peak season vehicle rentals and an increase in payables related to our IT transformation programs. The above is partially offset by a $61 million decrease in cash related to accrued liabilities and prepaid expenses and other assets resulting from insurance and restructuring payments, other accrued liabilities and prepayments for advertising and IT services.

Our primary investing activities relate to the acquisition and disposals of revenue earning vehicles. Cash from the sale of revenue earning vehicles was down $952 million due to fewer program vehicles returned to the manufacturer year over year and overall lower sales prices, and was partially offset by a $178 million decrease in cash outflows for the purchase of revenue earning vehicles as the Company focused on managing its fleet size. Cash from equity method investments was down $179 million due to $9 million of proceeds received from the sale of CAR Inc. common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $233 million received in the prior year period, offset by a $45 million cash outflow in the prior period for the purchase of an equity method investment.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017 , there was a $3.5 billion increase in net borrowings, partially offset by the $2.1 billion transfer from discontinued operations resulting from the Spin-Off which occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2016 . Under the terms of the credit agreement governing the Senior Facilities, the use of proceeds from the issuance of the Senior Second Priority Secured Notes in June 2017 is limited to refinancing existing indebtedness and funding related expenses. As such, the remaining proceeds as of June 30, 2017 of approximately $834 million are classified as restricted cash and comprise the net change in restricted cash and cash equivalents, non-vehicle during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

As of June 30, 2017 , Hertz Global had cash and cash equivalents of $1.1 billion , an increase of $325 million from $816 million as of December 31, 2016 . The following table summarizes the net change in cash and cash equivalents for the periods shown:

Fluctuations in operating, investing and financing cash flows from period to period are due to the same factors as those disclosed for Hertz above, with the exception of any cash inflows or outflows related to the master loan agreement between Hertz and Hertz Global and cash outflows by Hertz Global for the purchase of treasury shares, of which there were none during the six months ended June 30, 2017 or 2016 .

Financing

Our primary liquidity needs include servicing of vehicle and non-vehicle debt, the payment of operating expenses and capital projects and purchases of revenue earning vehicles to be used in our operations. Our primary sources of funding are operating cash flows, cash received on the disposal of revenue earning vehicles, borrowings under our revolving credit facilities and access to the credit markets. Substantially all of our revenue earning vehicles and certain related assets are owned by special purpose entities, or are encumbered in favor of our lenders under our various credit facilities, other secured financings and asset-backed securities programs. None of such assets are available to satisfy the claims of our general creditors.

We are highly leveraged, and a substantial portion of our liquidity needs arise from debt service on our indebtedness and from the funding of our costs of operations, capital expenditures and acquisitions. The Company’s practice is to maintain sufficient total liquidity through cash from operations, credit facilities and other financing arrangements, to mitigate any adverse effect on its operations resulting from adverse financial market conditions.

In June 2017, Hertz terminated $150 million of commitments under the Senior RCF, such that after giving effect to such termination the Senior RCF consists of a $1.55 billion senior secured revolving credit facility. Other financing transactions that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2017 did not significantly change our overall liquidity. See Part I, Item 1, Note 7 , " Debt ," to the Notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Report (" Note 7 ") for information. Corporate liquidity (defined as unrestricted cash plus availability under the primary non-vehicle liquidity line of $1.1 billion and $9 million , respectively, at June 30, 2017 and $816 million and $1.1 billion , respectively, at December 31, 2016) declined to $1.2 billion at June 30, 2017 from $1.9 billion at December 31, 2016. The decline is primarily due to funding our operations and the acquisition of non-vehicle capital assets.

Cash paid for interest during the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $130 million for interest on vehicle debt and $128 million for interest on non-vehicle debt.

Approximately $1.6 billion of vehicle debt and $7 million of non-vehicle debt will mature during the twelve months following the issuance of this Report and the Company will need to refinance a portion of the debt. The Company has reviewed the maturing debt obligations and determined that it is probable that the Company will be able, and has the intent, to repay or refinance such obligations before the expiration of such facilities.

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

We believe that cash generated from operations, cash received on the disposal of vehicles, together with amounts available under various liquidity facilities and refinancing options available to us, will be adequate to permit us to meet our debt maturities over the next twelve months.

Covenants

The indentures for the Senior Notes and Senior Second Priority Secured Notes contain covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict the ability of the Hertz credit group to incur additional indebtedness, incur guarantee obligations, prepay certain indebtedness, make certain restricted payments (including paying dividends, redeeming stock or making other distributions to parent entities of Hertz and other persons outside of the Hertz credit group), make investments, create liens, transfer or sell assets, merge or consolidate, and enter into certain transactions with Hertz's affiliates that are not members of the Hertz credit group.

Certain of the Company's other debt instruments and credit facilities (including the Senior Facilities) contain a number of covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict the ability of the borrowers and the guarantors to dispose of assets, incur additional indebtedness, incur guarantee obligations, prepay certain indebtedness, make certain restricted payments (including paying dividends, share repurchases or making other distributions), create liens, make investments, make acquisitions, engage in mergers, fundamentally change the nature of their business, make capital expenditures, or engage in certain transactions with certain affiliates.

The Senior RCF contains a financial maintenance covenant that is only applicable to the Senior RCF. Such covenant provides that Hertz’s consolidated first lien net leverage ratio, as defined in the Senior RCF Credit Agreement, as of the last day of any fiscal quarter (the "Covenant Leverage Ratio"), may not exceed the ratios indicated below:
Fiscal Quarter(s) Ending
 
Maximum Ratio

to
1.00
December 31, 2017 and each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 ending thereafter
 
3.00
to
1.00

At June 30, 2017 , Hertz was in compliance with the Covenant Leverage Ratio with a ratio of 2.56 to 1.00, as calculated in accordance with the Senior RCF Credit Agreement. Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Senior RCF Credit Agreement, is a component of the calculation of the Covenant Leverage Ratio and is a non-GAAP financial measure that is not a measure of operating results, but instead is a measure used to determine compliance with the Covenant Leverage Ratio under the Senior RCF Credit Agreement. Consolidated EBITDA is generally defined in the Senior RCF Credit Agreement as consolidated net income plus the sum of income taxes, non-vehicle interest expense, non-vehicle depreciation and amortization expense, and non-cash charges or losses, as further adjusted for certain other items permitted in calculating covenant compliance under the Senior RCF, including add backs for non-recurring, unusual or extraordinary charges, business optimization expenses or other restructuring charges or reserves.

Based on available liquidity from our expected operating results, the Senior RCF and other financing arrangements, Hertz expects to continue to be in compliance with the Covenant Leverage Ratio for at least the next twelve months.

Rental Fleet Securitization Rating Methodology

In July 2016, Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”) published a request for comment regarding proposed changes to its methodology for rating rental fleet securitizations, and in December 2016, Moody's published updated methodology for rating rental fleet securitizations.  In connection therewith, Moody's placed several senior tranches of our outstanding series of HVF II U.S. Vehicle Medium Term Notes and/or HVF U.S. Vehicle Medium Term Notes on review for downgrade as a result of Moody’s application of its new methodology to such outstanding series of notes. In February 2017, the Company took actions to maintain the ratings at their current levels and as a result of such actions Moody’s removed these tranches from review for downgrade and confirmed the ratings of such tranches at their current levels. The actions taken include the Company making changes to the underlying documentation governing such series of notes

as well as providing incremental enhancement with respect to one such series. The aforementioned rating actions relate solely to certain of our securitization debt and not our corporate ratings or ratings on any of our non-vehicle debt.

As further described in Note 2 , " Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements ," to the Notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Report, we revised our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows to decrease revenue earning vehicles expenditures and decrease proceeds from disposals of revenue earning vehicles by $22 million , of which $7 million is attributable to the first quarter of 2016, in the International segment and $359 million in the All Other Operations segment for the six months ended June 30, 2016 . These revisions had no impact on net capital expenditures for revenue earning vehicles for the segments.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

As of June 30, 2017 , there have been no material changes outside of the ordinary course of business to our known contractual obligations as set forth in the table included in Part II, Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" included in our 2016 Form 10‑K. Changes to our aggregate indebtedness, including related interest and terms for new issuances, are described in Part I, Item 1, Note 7 , " Debt ," to the Notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Report.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET COMMITMENTS AND ARRANGEMENTS

Indemnification Obligations

There have been no significant changes to our indemnification obligations as compared to those disclosed in Note 17, "Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Commitments" of the Notes to our consolidated financial statements included in our 2016 Form 10‑K under the caption Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

The Company regularly evaluates the probability of having to incur costs associated with indemnification obligations and will accrue for expected losses when they are probable and estimable.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the

71


HERTZ GLOBAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
THE HERTZ CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

United States of America. The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts in our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. If different assumptions or conditions were to prevail, the results could be materially different from our reported results.

We discuss our critical accounting policies and estimates in Part II, Item 7. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our 2016 Form 10-K. On January 1, 2017, we prospectively adopted guidance that eliminates the second step of the two-step goodwill impairment test, which requires the determination of the implied fair value of goodwill to measure an impairment. Rather, a goodwill impairment charge will be calculated as the amount by which a reporting unit's carrying amount exceeds its fair value. Under the guidance, we still have the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary.

On January 1, 2017 we also adopted guidance that simplifies several areas of employee share-based payment accounting, including income taxes, forfeitures, minimum statutory withholding requirements, and classifications within the statement of cash flows. Most significantly, the new guidance eliminates the need to track tax “windfalls” in a separate pool within additional paid-in capital; instead, excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies will be recorded within income tax expense. For details regarding the method of adoption, refer to Part I, Item 1, Note 2 " Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements ," to the Notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Report.

Effective January 1, 2017, the Company’s board of directors adopted the 2017 EICP which provides for PSUs where the service inception date precedes the grant date. The fair value is based on the anticipated number of shares awarded and the quoted price of the Company’s shares at each reporting date up to the grant date. Compensation charges accumulate as a liability until the grant date, at which time the liability will be reclassified to equity. Additionally, under the 2016 Omnibus Plan, we issued PSAs with graded vesting where the compensation expense is recognized ratably over the requisite service period for each separately vesting tranche of the award. For details regarding the 2017 EICP and PSAs described above, refer to Part I, Item 1, Note 9 " Stock-Based Compensation ," to the Notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Report.

There have been no other material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as disclosed in Part II, Item 7. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our 2016 Form 10-K.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

For a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements, see Note 2 , " Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements ," to the Notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Report on Form 10-Q under the caption Item 1, "Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)" (" Note 2 ").

As disclosed in Note 2 , the Company will adopt Topic 606 on January 1, 2018. The Company believes that the most significant impact relates to its accounting for reward points earned by customers under its loyalty programs. Upon adoption of Topic 606, each transaction which generates loyalty reward points will result in the deferral of revenue equivalent to the retail value of the redemption of the loyalty reward points. The associated revenue will be recognized at the time when the customer redeems the loyalty reward points. Under the current guidance, there is no revenue deferral and the Company records an expense associated with the incremental cost of providing the future rental at the time when the loyalty reward points are earned. The Company is in the process of quantifying the impact of deferring revenue associated with reward points upon adoption of Topic 606.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained or incorporated by reference in this Report and in reports we subsequently file with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on Forms 10‑K and 10‑Q and file or furnish on Form 8‑K, and in related comments by our management, include "forward-looking statements."

ITEM 3.   QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Hertz Global and Hertz are exposed to a variety of market risks, including the effects of changes in interest rates (including credit spreads), foreign currency exchange rates and fluctuations in fuel prices. Hertz Global and Hertz manage their exposure to these market risks through their regular operating and financing activities and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments. Derivative financial instruments are viewed as risk management tools and have not been used for speculative or trading purposes. In addition, derivative financial instruments are entered into with a diversified group of major financial institutions in order to manage Hertz Global and Hertz's exposure to counterparty nonperformance on such instruments.

Hertz Global

In the second quarter of 2017, Hertz Global identified a new 5 percent shareholder of its common stock that resulted in a change in control as that term is defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. Due to the net unrealized built-in gains from its like-kind exchange programs, Hertz Global does not anticipate that this will have an impact on its taxes or that it will lose any of its net operating losses. Other than as described above, there have been no material changes to the information reported under Part II, Item 7A, "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk," included in Hertz Global's 2016 Form 10‑K.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our senior management has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of June 30, 2017 , due to the identification of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, as further described in Item 9A of our 2016 Form 10-K, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the three months ended June 30, 2017 , we have taken, and continue to take, the actions described below to remediate our existing material weaknesses, which have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Control Activities

Non-Fleet Procurement

To address the material weaknesses over the non-fleet procurement process untimely creation of purchase orders and improper receipting of goods management performed the following during the three months ended June 30, 2017: (1) established comprehensive and clear policies and procedures to govern requisitioning of goods and expenditure approval requirements, (ii) delivered supplemental trainings to all requisitioners with the objective of developing a thorough understanding of the Company’s requisitioner policies and review protocols and (iii) implemented monitoring controls of purchase orders created after invoice date and invoices on hold activity to ensure compliance with policies and procedures.

To address the material weakness over improper recording and submission of purchase card “Pcard” transactions by field operations, management performed the following during the three months ended June 30, 2017: (1) updated existing technology and expense reporting tools to assist in the review and approval of Pcard transactions, (2) delivered trainings on the new process for submitting Pcard transactions with receipts for approval and desktop procedures and (3) enhanced our Pcard approval review controls.

To address the material weakness over lack of approval of material vendor payments, management performed the following during the three months ended June 30, 2017: (1) updated existing technology to assist in the review and approval of material vendor payments, (2) established comprehensive and clear policies and procedures to govern expenditure approval requirements, training and (iii) enhanced our material vendor payment approval manual review controls.

Risk Assessment

Information Technology Systems

To address the material weakness associated with controls over IT, management performed the following during the three months ended June 30, 2017: (1) enhanced and implemented controls to monitor developers’ access to production and adequately capture, document and approve data changes and other IT related activities, (2) enhanced design and operation of control activities and procedures associated with user and administrator access to the affected IT system, including both preventative and detective control activities, (3) educated and re-trained control owners regarding risks,

76


HERTZ GLOBAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
THE HERTZ CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

ITEM 4.   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES (CONTINUED)


controls and maintaining adequate evidence of review, (4) clarified and communicated appropriate roles and responsibilities for controls and systems for both IT and business users and (5) dedicated additional resources to administer IT general controls monitoring and promote compliance with policies, procedures and processes.

System-Generated Reports and Spreadsheets Related to Revenue Earning Vehicles Estimates

To address the material weakness associated with completeness and accuracy of system-generated reports and spreadsheets used in the accounting for estimates related to revenue earning vehicles, during the three months ended June 30, 2017, management identified the key assumptions and inputs of certain significant estimates, the data sources and designed procedures to validate the completeness and accuracy of the data extraction and transfer of data used in these estimates. Management is in process of completing the design and implementation of the controls.

To remediate our existing material weaknesses, we require additional time to complete the implementation of our remediation plans and demonstrate the effectiveness of our remediation efforts. The material weaknesses cannot be considered remediated until the applicable remedial controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.

As we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal controls over financial reporting, our senior management may determine to take additional measures to address control deficiencies or determine to modify the remediation efforts described in this section. Until the remediation efforts discussed in this section, including any additional remediation efforts that our senior management identifies as necessary, are completed, the material weaknesses described in Item 9A of our 2016 Form 10-K will continue to exist.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our senior management has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of June 30, 2017 , due to the identification of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, as further described in Item 9A of our 2016 Form 10-K, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

System-Generated Reports and Spreadsheets Related to Revenue Earning Vehicles Estimates

To address the material weakness associated with completeness and accuracy of system-generated reports and spreadsheets used in the accounting for estimates related to revenue earning vehicles, during the three months ended June 30, 2017, management identified the key assumptions and inputs of certain significant estimates, the data sources and designed procedures to validate the completeness and accuracy of the data extraction and transfer of data used in these estimates. Management is in process of completing the design and implementation of the controls.

To remediate our existing material weaknesses, we require additional time to complete the implementation of our remediation plans and demonstrate the effectiveness of our remediation efforts. The material weaknesses cannot be considered remediated until the applicable remedial controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.

As we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal controls over financial reporting, our senior management may determine to take additional measures to address control deficiencies or determine to modify the remediation efforts described in this section. Until the remediation efforts discussed in this section, including any additional remediation efforts that our senior management identifies as necessary, are completed, the material weaknesses described in Item 9A of our 2016 Form 10-K will continue to exist.
