Note 1—Background
Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. ("Hertz Global" when including its subsidiaries and VIEs and "Hertz Holdings" when excluding its subsidiaries and VIEs) 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-operated and franchisee locations in the United States ("U.S."), Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia, Canada, the Caribbean, Latin America, the Middle East and New Zealand. The Company also sells vehicles through Hertz Car Sales.
Note 2—Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Basis of Presentation
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q ("Quarterly Report") combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2025 of Hertz Global and Hertz. Hertz Global consolidates Hertz for financial statement purposes and, therefore, disclosures that relate to activities of Hertz also apply to Hertz Global. In the sections that combine disclosure of Hertz Global and Hertz, this report refers to actions as being actions of the Company, or Hertz Global, which is appropriate because the business is one enterprise and Hertz Global operates the business through Hertz. When appropriate, Hertz Global and Hertz are named specifically for their individual disclosures and any significant differences between the operations and results of Hertz Global and Hertz are separately disclosed and explained.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“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 Company's vehicle rental operations are typically a seasonal business, with decreased levels of business in the winter months and heightened activity during the spring and summer months for the majority of countries where the Company generates revenues.
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, 2024 unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet data is derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with information included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 ("2024 Form 10-K"), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 18, 2025.
Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Hertz Global include the accounts of Hertz Global, its wholly owned and majority owned U.S. and international subsidiaries and its VIEs, as applicable. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Hertz include the accounts of Hertz, its wholly owned and majority owned U.S. and international subsidiaries and its VIEs, as applicable. The Company consolidates a VIE when it is

deemed the primary beneficiary of the VIE. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Not yet adopted
Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued guidance to enhance income tax disclosures related to, among other items, rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company intends to adopt the guidance when it becomes effective using a retrospective application and will include the required disclosures in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2025.
Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses
In November 2024, the FASB issued guidance to enhance disclosures related to, among other items, specified information about certain costs and expenses for commonly presented expense captions included in the financial statements. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027 using either a prospective or retrospective transition method. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of determining the method and timing of adoption and assessing the overall impact of adopting this guidance on its disclosures.

First Lien Credit Agreement / First Lien RCF
On April 1 2025, an amendment to the credit agreement governing the First Lien RCF ("the First Lien Credit Agreement"), which was entered into in April 2024 ("Amendment No. 8"), sunset as expected. Amendment No. 8 contained a minimum liquidity covenant of $400 million for each month ending in the second and third quarters of 2024 and $500 million for each month ending in the fourth quarter of 2024 and the first quarter of 2025. Amendment No. 8 also temporarily amended Hertz's compliance with a financial covenant consisting of a ratio of first lien debt to Consolidated EBITDA ("the First Lien Ratio"), as defined within the First Lien Credit Agreement and may be materially different than Adjusted Corporate EBITDA presented in Part I, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report, to require a ratio of less than or equal to 5.0x in the second and third quarters of 2024 and 4.75x in the fourth quarter of 2024

and first quarter of 2025. Upon sunset of Amendment No. 8, the First Lien Ratio reverted to a requirement of less than or equal to 3.0x in the first and last quarters of the calendar year and 3.5x in the second and third quarters of the calendar year.
In May 2025, the First Lien Credit Agreement was amended ("Amendment No. 10"), which provides for the extension of the maturity date of $1.7 billion of commitments under Hertz's existing $2.0 billion First Lien RCF from June 2026 to March 2028, subject to a springing maturity date (as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement) and makes certain other amendments to the First Lien Credit Agreement. Hertz will have access to up to $2.0 billion under the First Lien RCF until June 2026, and thereafter the aggregate amount of commitments under the First Lien RCF is $1.7 billion until March 2028, after giving effect to the terms of Amendment No. 10.
Amendment No. 10 also contains a minimum liquidity covenant, consistent with that of Amendment No. 8, which requires $400 million for each month ending in the second and third quarters of the calendar year and $500 million for each month ending in the first and fourth quarter of the calendar year. Liquidity as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement may be materially different than corporate liquidity presented in Part I, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report. Amendment No. 10 also adds certain limitations on Restricted Payments and Permitted Investments (each as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement). Under the terms of Amendment No. 10, the minimum liquidity covenant and certain restrictions will sunset upon the end of the Relief Period (as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement).

The Exchangeable Notes bear PIK interest payable semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 (the "Semi-annual PIK Event"), which began in January 2025, where PIK interest increases the principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes upon each Semi-annual PIK Event. In connection with Semi-annual PIK Event in the first quarter of 2025, the Company increased the principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes by $11 million.
Additionally, for each Semi-annual PIK Event, the Company bifurcates an associated embedded derivative (the "Exchange Feature PIK") from the Exchangeable Notes for accounting purposes utilizing applicable guidance. As a result, the Company recognized a debt discount of $3 million within non-vehicle debt in the accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2025, representing the initial fair value. Refer to Note 10, "Fair Value Measurements," for further details.

In May 2025, TCL Funding Limited Partnership, a bankruptcy-remote, indirect, wholly owned and special-purpose subsidiary of Hertz, amended the Hertz Canadian Securitization to increase the aggregate maximum borrowings from CAD$475 million to CAD$588 million until November 2025, reverting to CAD$475 million thereafter until the extended maturity date of April 2027.
U.K. ABS
In December 2024, Hertz Fleet Financing UK Limited (“HFF”), a special-purpose orphan entity, entered into the U.K. ABS. Upon entrance, the U.K. ABS was not funded. During the first quarter of 2025, the U.K. ABS aggregate maximum borrowings were increased to £215 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, asset-based revolving credit facilities and the First Lien RCF. 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. 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-

As of March 31, 2025, there were outstanding standby letters of credit totaling $913 million comprised primarily of $651 million issued under the First Lien RCF and $245 million issued under the Term C Loan. As of March 31, 2025, no capacity remained to issue additional letters of credit under the Term C Loan. Such letters of credit have been issued primarily to provide credit enhancement for the Company's asset-backed securitization facilities and to support the Company's insurance programs, as well as to support the Company's vehicle rental concessions and leaseholds. As of March 31, 2025, none of the issued letters of credit have been drawn upon.
Pledges Related to Vehicle Financing
Substantially all of the Company's revenue earning vehicles and certain related assets are owned by special purpose entities or are encumbered in favor of the lenders under the various credit facilities, other secured financings or asset-backed securities programs. None of the value of such assets (including the assets owned by Hertz Vehicle Financing III LLC, TCL Funding LP and each of the domestic and international subsidiaries that pledge vehicle and vehicle related assets as part of the Company's securitization programs) will be available to satisfy the claims of non-vehicle secured or unsecured creditors, unless the vehicle related secured creditors under the securitization programs are paid in full.
The Company has a 25% ownership interest in IFF No. 2, whose sole purpose is to provide commitments to lend under the European ABS in various currencies, subject to borrowing bases comprised of revenue earning vehicles and related assets of certain of Hertz International, Ltd.'s subsidiaries.

Covenant Compliance
The First Lien Credit Agreement requires Hertz to comply with the following financial covenant: the First Lien Ratio, which requires a ratio of less than or equal to 3.0x in the first and last quarters of the calendar year and 3.5x in the second and third quarters of the calendar year. Amendment No. 8 temporarily increased the First Lien Ratio and contained a minimum liquidity covenant, which sunset, as expected, on the first day of the second quarter of 2025, as disclosed above. As of March 31, 2025, Hertz was in compliance with the First Lien Ratio, as temporarily amended. Amendment No. 10 requires a minimum liquidity covenant, consistent with Amendment No. 8, and will sunset upon the end of the Relief Period, as disclosed above. As of the filing of this Quarterly Report, Hertz was in compliance with the minimum liquidity covenant.
Additionally, the First Lien Credit Agreement, the First Lien Senior Notes, the Exchangeable Notes, the Senior Notes Due 2026 and the Senior Notes Due 2029 (collectively, the "Corporate Indebtedness") contain customary affirmative covenants, including, among other things, the delivery of quarterly and annual financial statements and/or compliance certificates, and covenants related to conduct of business, maintenance of property and insurance, compliance with environmental laws and, where applicable, the granting of security interests for the benefit of the secured parties under the applicable agreements on after-acquired real property, fixtures and future subsidiaries.
The terms of the Corporate Indebtedness contain covenants limiting the ability of Hertz and its restricted subsidiaries to: incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; incur or guarantee secured indebtedness; pay dividends or distributions on, or redeem or repurchase, Hertz Global capital stock; make certain investments or other restricted payments; sell certain assets; transfer intellectual property to unrestricted subsidiaries; merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of its assets; and create restrictions on the ability of Hertz’s restricted subsidiaries to pay dividends or other amounts to Hertz. As per the terms of the Corporate Indebtedness, these covenants are subject to a number of important and significant limitations, qualifications and exceptions.
As of March 31, 2025, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the terms of the agreements governing the respective Corporate Indebtedness.

As of March 31, 2025, approximately 6,300,000 Public Warrants had been exercised since their original issuance in June 2021. The Public Warrants are recorded at fair value in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. See Note 10, "Fair Value Measurements."
Computation of Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share
Basic earnings (loss) per common share has been computed based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share has been computed based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents, including Public Warrants and Exchangeable Notes, except when the effect would be antidilutive. Dilutive shares for stock-based instruments and Public Warrants are computed using the treasury stock method and dilutive shares for Exchangeable Notes are computed using the if-converted method. Additionally, the Company removes the income or expense impacts related to Public Warrants and Exchangeable Notes when computing diluted earnings (loss) per common share, when the impacts are dilutive.

Note 9—Financial Instruments
The Company employs established risk management policies and procedures, and, under the terms of our ABS facilities, may be required to enter into interest rate derivatives, which seek to reduce the Company’s commercial risk exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and currency exchange rates. Although the instruments utilized involve varying degrees of credit, market and interest risk, the Company contracts with multiple counterparties to mitigate concentrations of risk and the counterparties to the agreements are expected to perform fully under the terms of the agreements. The Company monitors counterparty credit risk, including lenders, on a regular basis, but cannot be certain that all risks will be discerned or that its risk management policies and procedures will always be effective. Additionally, upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Company’s International Swaps and Derivatives Association ("ISDA") master derivative agreements, the non-defaulting party generally has the right, but not the obligation, to set-off any early termination amounts under any such agreements against any other amounts owed with regard to any other agreements between the parties to each such agreement.
None of the Company's financial instruments have been designated as hedging instruments as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The Company classifies cash flows from financial instruments according to the classification of the cash flows of the economically hedged item(s).
Interest Rate Risk
The Company uses a combination of interest rate caps and swaps to manage its exposure to interest rate movements and to manage its mix of floating and fixed-rate debt.

Note 10—Fair Value Measurements
Under U.S. GAAP, entities are allowed to measure certain financial instruments and other items at fair value. The Company has not elected the fair value measurement option for any of its assets or liabilities that meet the criteria for this option. Irrespective of the fair value option previously described, U.S. GAAP requires certain financial and non-financial assets and liabilities of the Company to be measured on either a recurring basis or on a nonrecurring basis.

Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash Equivalents
The Company’s cash equivalents and restricted cash equivalents primarily consist of investments in money market funds and bank money market and interest-bearing accounts. The Company determines the fair value of cash equivalents and restricted cash equivalents using a market approach based on quoted prices in active markets (i.e., Level 1 inputs).
Public Warrants – Hertz Global
Hertz Global's Public Warrants are classified as liabilities and recorded at fair value in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 in accordance with the provisions of ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. See Note 7, "Public Warrants, Equity and Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share – Hertz Global," for additional information. The Company calculates the fair value based on the end-of-day quoted market price (i.e., a Level 1 input). For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024,

the fair value adjustments were a loss of $9 million and a gain $86 million, respectively. These amounts are recorded in change in fair value of Public Warrants in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for Hertz Global for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.
Exchangeable Notes - Bifurcated Derivatives
The Exchangeable Notes contain an embedded conversion feature (the "Exchange Feature") that was required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately from the Exchangeable Notes as a derivative liability at fair value. Upon issuance in June 2024, the Company recognized a debt discount within non-vehicle debt, representing the initial fair value of the Exchange Feature.
As disclosed in Note 4, "Debt," the Exchangeable Notes bear PIK interest payable semi-annually on January 15 and July 15. Upon the Semi-annual PIK Event in the first quarter of 2025, the Company bifurcated the Exchange Feature PIK and recognized a debt discount of $3 million within non-vehicle debt, representing the initial fair value.
As of March 31, 2025, the fair value of the Exchange Feature and the Exchange Feature PIK (collectively, the "Exchange Features") was $70 million. Refer also to Note 9, "Financial Instruments," for further information.
The fair value of the Exchange Features was determined using a lattice model and a “with-and-without” valuation methodology. The inputs used to estimate the fair value of the Exchange Features include the probability of potential settlement scenarios, the expected timing of such settlement and an expected volatility determined by reference to historical stock volatilities. As the expected volatility input is considered unobservable, the Company has categorized the Exchange Features as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
The estimated fair values of the Exchange Features were computed using the following key inputs as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| March 31, 2025 | | December 31, 2024 |
Hertz Global common share price | $ | 3.94 | | | $ | 3.66 | |
Expected term (years) | 4.29 | | 4.54 |
Risk-free interest rate | 3.94 | % | | 4.35 | % |
Credit spread | 17.06 | % | | 8.55 | % |
Expected volatility | 48.75 | % | | 48.75 | % |
The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the Exchange Features is expected volatility. Holding other inputs constant, an increase (decrease) in expected volatility would have resulted in a higher (lower) fair value measurement, respectively.

Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company's financial instruments as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 are disclosed in Note 9, "Financial Instruments." The Company's financial instruments, excluding the Exchange Feature as disclosed above, are priced using quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets (i.e., Level 2 inputs).
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
In March 2024, the Company identified the EV Disposal Groups which were in response to management's determination that the supply of EVs exceeded customer demand, elevated EV damage and collision costs, and a decline in EV residual values. As a result, the EV Disposal Groups were classified as held for sale and recorded at the lower of carrying value or fair value (as determined using Level 2 inputs) less costs to sell. As of December 31, 2024, the sale of the EV Disposal Groups was substantially complete. See Note 3, "Revenue Earning Vehicles," for additional information.
Note 11—Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Commitments
Legal Proceedings
Self-Insured Liabilities
The Company is currently a defendant in numerous actions and has received numerous claims on which actions have not yet commenced for self-insured liabilities arising from the operation of motor vehicles rented from the Company. The obligation for self-insured liabilities on self-insured U.S. and international vehicles, as stated in the accompanying unaudited 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 an undiscounted basis and are based on actuarially determined estimates using historical claims experience. These estimates include judgment about severity of claims, frequency and volume of claims. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company's liability recorded for self-insured liabilities was $627 million and $617 million, of which $498 million and $491 million relates to liabilities incurred by the Company's Americas RAC operations, respectively. The Company believes that its analysis is based on the most relevant information available, combined with reasonable assumptions. The liability is subject to significant uncertainties. The adequacy of the liability is monitored quarterly based on evolving accident claim history. 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.

Loss Contingencies
From time to time, the Company is a party to various legal proceedings, typically involving operational issues common to the vehicle rental business. The Company has summarized below the material legal proceedings to which the Company was a party during the three months ended March 31, 2025 or the period after March 31, 2025, but before the filing of this Quarterly Report.
Make-Whole and Post-Petition Interest Claims – On July 1, 2021, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. ("Wells Fargo"), in its capacity as indenture trustee of (1) 6.250% Unsecured Notes due 2022 (the "2022 Notes"), (2) 5.500% Unsecured Notes due 2024 (the "2024 Notes"), (3) 7.125% Unsecured Notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes") and (4) 6.000% Unsecured Notes due 2028 (the "2028 Notes") issued by The Hertz Corporation (collectively, the “Unsecured Notes”), filed a complaint against The Hertz Corporation and multiple direct and indirect subsidiaries thereof (collectively referred to in this paragraph summary as “defendants”). The filing of the complaint initiated the adversary proceeding captioned Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. v. The Hertz Corp., et al. in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the "Delaware Bankruptcy Court"), Adv. Pro. No. 21-50995 (MFW). The complaint seeks a declaratory judgment that the holders of the Unsecured Notes are entitled to payment of certain redemption premiums and post-petition interest that the holders assert total approximately $272 million or, in the alternative, are entitled to payment of post-petition interest at a contractual rate that they assert totals approximately $125 million. The complaint also asserts the right to pre-judgment interest from July 1, 2021 to the date of any judgment. On December 22, 2021, the Delaware Bankruptcy Court dismissed Wells Fargo’s claims with respect to (i) the redemption premium allegedly owed on the 2022 Notes and the 2024 Notes and (ii) post-petition interest at the contract rate. See Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. v. The Hertz Corp., et al., 637 B.R. 781 (Bankr. D. Del. Dec. 22, 2021). On November 9, 2022, the Delaware Bankruptcy Court ruled that the make-whole premium is the same as unmatured interest and is disallowed under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, granting summary judgment in the defendants’ favor. The Delaware Bankruptcy Court certified the matter directly to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit (the “Third Circuit”) and, on January 25, 2023, the Third Circuit accepted Wells Fargo’s appeal. The Third Circuit held an oral argument for this appeal on October 25, 2023, and on September 10, 2024, the Third Circuit issued its opinion in Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. v. The Hertz Corp., et al., 117 F.4th 109 (3d Cir. 2024). In a 2-1 decision, a panel of the Third Circuit held that the "absolute priority rule" required Hertz to pay the make-whole premium on the 2026 Notes and on the 2028 Notes, and post-petition interest at the contract rate rather than the federal judgment rate on all Unsecured Notes, even though those amounts were disallowed under the Bankruptcy Code. As a result, the Company has accrued approximately $326 million for this litigation as of March 31, 2025, made up of approximately $260 million on the underlying claims and approximately $66 million in pre-judgment interest, which interest will continue to accrue until the date of any judgment that may be entered by the Delaware Bankruptcy Court. On October 15, 2024, the Company filed a petition with the Third Circuit for a rehearing en banc, which the Third Circuit denied on November 6, 2024. The case has now been remanded to the Delaware Bankruptcy Court for a determination of the exact amount owed by the Company. The Company and the Indenture Trustee do not agree on the proper calculation of the amounts owed, and that dispute remains to be resolved by the Delaware Bankruptcy Court. The Company also announced its intent to seek review of the Third Circuit's decision by the Supreme Court of the United States (the "U.S. Supreme Court"). The Company filed a petition for writ of certiorari with the U.S. Supreme Court on April 4, 2025. Wells Fargo filed a brief in opposition to the Company’s petition on April 29, 2025. The Company’s reply brief is due on May 13, 2025. As previously disclosed, the Company commenced negotiations with certain holders of the Unsecured Notes (the “Noteholders”) with respect to a possible settlement of this litigation (a “Potential Settlement”). The Company has not reached an agreement with the Noteholders, and there can be no assurance that a Potential Settlement will be agreed upon between the Noteholders and the Company. The Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome or timing of this litigation; if, however, the Delaware Bankruptcy Court were to enter judgment against Hertz, payment of such judgment could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Claims Related to Alleged False Arrests – A group of claims involving allegations that the police detained or arrested individuals in error after the Company reported rental cars as stolen were previously advanced against the Company. These claims first arose from actions allegedly taken by the Company prior to its emergence from bankruptcy reorganization; some claims alleged post-emergence behavior by the Company. These claims have been the subject of press coverage, and the Company has received government inquiries on the matter. The

Company has policies to help guide the proper treatment of its customers and to seek to protect itself against the theft of its services or assets, and the Company has taken significant steps to modernize and update those policies. In December 2022, the Company entered into settlement agreements with 364 claimants in full and final resolutions of their claims for an aggregated amount of approximately $168 million (the "Settlement"), all of which amount was paid by the Company during December 2022. The Settlement resolved nearly all of the false arrest-related claims being advanced in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware, Adv. Pro. No. 20-11247 (MFW) and state court in Delaware (captioned Flannery, et al. v. Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., et al., C.A. No. N22C-07-100 and Okoasia, et al. v. Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., et al., C.A. No. N22C-09-531). Also, as a result of the Settlements, state court matters pending in Pennsylvania, captioned Lovelace, et al. v. Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., et al., Case No. 220801729, and in Florida, captioned Lizasoain, et al. v. Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., et al., Case No. 2022-015316-CA-1, were dismissed with prejudice. The Company continues to vigorously defend itself and believes that the ultimate resolution of any remaining claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Relatedly, in May 2022, the Company filed a complaint against several of its insurers seeking a determination of its rights under its commercial general liability, and directors and officers liability, insurance policies for these alleged claims in a declaratory judgment action pending in Delaware Superior Court, Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., et al. v. ACE American Insurance Co., et al., C.A. No. N22C-05-130 MMJ (CCLD). On June 30, 2023, Hertz entered into a confidential settlement agreement with ACE American Insurance Company. On July 10, 2024, the Delaware Superior Court held a hearing on cross-motions for partial summary judgment and summary judgment. The Company entered into confidential settlement agreements with some of the remaining insurers before and after the hearing. On October 8, 2024, the Delaware Superior Court denied the Company's motion for partial summary judgment and granted the cross-motions for summary judgment and partial summary judgment in favor of the remaining general liability insurers. Thereafter, Hertz entered into settlement agreements with the remaining directors' and officers' liability insurers. On March 10, 2025, Hertz filed its notice of appeal to the Delaware Supreme Court. Hertz filed its opening brief on April 25, 2025.
Share Repurchase Program Litigation – On May 11, 2023, Angelo Cascia, a purported stockholder of Hertz Global, filed a putative class and derivative lawsuit in the Delaware Court of Chancery (the "Delaware Chancery Court") against certain current and former directors of Hertz Global, Knighthead Capital Management, LLC ("Knighthead"), Certares Opportunities LLC ("Certares") and CK Amarillo. The claims in the complaint relate to the Company’s share repurchase programs approved in November 2021 and June 2022. Among other allegations, the plaintiff claims Board members breached their fiduciary duties in approving these share repurchase programs and that Knighthead, Certares, and CK Amarillo were unjustly enriched because they gained a majority stake in Hertz Global as a result of share repurchases. Defendants filed their motion to dismiss the complaint on July 24, 2023. On March 11, 2024, the Delaware Chancery Court held a hearing on defendants' motion to dismiss. On June 20, 2024, the Delaware Chancery Court granted in part and denied in part the defendants' motion to dismiss. The Delaware Chancery Court dismissed the claims against directors Feikin, Fields, Intrieri and Vougessis with prejudice, dismissed the claims related to the 2021 buyback without prejudice and allowed the remaining claims to proceed. On August 26, 2024, the Board formed a Special Litigation Committee (the "SLC"), made up of two independent directors, to evaluate and take any necessary actions related to the remaining claims. On October 21, 2024, the Delaware Chancery Court granted a motion to stay the litigation, including all discovery, until March 21, 2025. On March 26, 2025, the Delaware Chancery Court extended the stay for an additional 30 days. On April 25, 2025, the SLC filed its report under seal with the Delaware Chancery Court. On May 9, 2025, the SLC filed an unopposed motion to terminate the derivative claims in the litigation. In response, the plaintiff informed the Delaware Chancery Court that he would not oppose the SLC’s motion to terminate the derivative claims, declared his intention to continue to prosecute the direct claims only and reserved his right to seek an award of fees based on the alleged benefit conferred to the Company
Securities Class Action Complaint – On May 31, 2024, a complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida (the "Florida Middle District Court"), captioned Edward M. Doller v. Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. et al. (No. 2:24-CV-00513). On September 30, 2024, an amended complaint was filed, following the Florida Middle District Court's appointment of a lead plaintiff and a lead counsel. The amended complaint asserts claims against Hertz Global, former Company CEO, Stephen M. Scherr, and former Company Chief Financial Officer, Alexandra Brooks, alleging violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, including concerning statements regarding demand for EVs. Plaintiffs assert claims on

Unaudited
behalf of a putative class, consisting of all persons and entities that purchased or otherwise acquired Hertz Global's securities between January 6, 2023 and April 24, 2024. The amended complaint seeks unspecified damages, together with interest, attorneys’ fees and other costs. Hertz Global filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on October 30, 2024. On December 19, 2024, the Florida Middle District Court stayed all proceedings, pending a ruling on the motion to dismiss.
Data Breach Claims – On April 15, 2025, Zain Jiwani filed a class action complaint against Cleo Communications U.S., LLC (“Cleo”) and the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Western Division (Rockford, IL). Plaintiff alleges that Cleo, a file-transfer vendor for the Company, experienced a data breach event that may have impacted the personal information of certain individuals during the secure file transfer process from the Company’s systems to third-party systems and that Company data may have been acquired by an unauthorized third party that exploited zero-day vulnerabilities within Cleo’s platform in October and December of 2024. Plaintiff alleges that the Company was negligent in failing to secure the data, breached implied contracts and was unjustly enriched. Ten similar class action complaints were filed against the Company shortly thereafter. The class actions generally seek injunctive relief and unspecified damages. At this early stage of the litigation, the Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these actions will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
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 self-insured liabilities and the bankruptcy-related litigation, none of those reserves are material. For matters 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. These matters are 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 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 Company's consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in any particular reporting period.
Indemnification Obligations
In the ordinary course of business, the Company has 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 separation of the car rental business in 2016, the Company executed an agreement with Herc Holdings Inc. 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 has accrued for expected losses that are probable and estimable.

Note 12—Segment Information
The Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") is its chief executive officer. The CODM uses Adjusted EBITDA to determine segment profitability in order to assess performance and allocate resources for the Company's reportable segments based on monitoring of budgeted results versus actual results. The Company has identified two reportable segments, which are consistent with its operating segments and organized based primarily on the geographic areas in which business is conducted, as follows:
•Americas RAC – Rental of vehicles (cars, crossovers, vans and light trucks), as well as sales of value-added services, in the U.S., Canada, Latin America and the Caribbean. The Company maintains a network of company-operated rental locations in this segment and has franchisees and partners that operate rental locations under the Company's brands; and
•International RAC – Rental of vehicles (cars, crossovers, vans and light trucks), as well as sales of value-added services, in locations other than the U.S., Canada, Latin America and the Caribbean. The Company maintains a network of company-operated rental locations, a majority of which are in Europe, and has franchisees and partners that operate rental locations under the Company's brands.
In addition to its reportable segments, the Company has corporate operations ("Corporate"), which includes general corporate assets and expenses and net interest expense on non-vehicle debt. Corporate includes other items necessary to reconcile the reportable segments to the Company's total amounts.
The following tables provide revenue, significant expenses, other segment expenses and the segment measure of profitability, Adjusted EBITDA, by reportable segment, including a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to consolidated income (loss) before income taxes for Hertz Global and Hertz.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. is a holding company and its principal, wholly owned subsidiary is The Hertz Corporation. Hertz Global consolidates Hertz for financial statement purposes, and 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 herein is for Hertz and also applies to Hertz Global in all material respects, unless otherwise noted. 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.
The statements in this MD&A regarding industry outlook, our expectations regarding the performance of our business and the other non-historical statements are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties. The following MD&A provides information that we believe to be relevant to an understanding of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations. Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by any forward-looking statements.
This MD&A should be read in conjunction with the MD&A presented in our 2024 Form 10-K together with the sections entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” Part II, Item 1A, "Risk Factors,” and our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2025 (this "Quarterly 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 revenue earning vehicle depreciation and various claims and contingencies related to lawsuits, taxes 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 the following non-GAAP measure and key metrics:
•Adjusted Corporate EBITDA – important non-GAAP measure 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 investors to assess our operational performance on the same basis that management uses internally. Adjusted EBITDA, the segment measure of profitability and accordingly a GAAP measure, is calculated exclusive of certain items which are largely consistent with those used in the calculation of Adjusted Corporate EBITDA.
•Vehicle Utilization – important key metric to management and investors as it is the measurement of the proportion of our vehicles that are being used to generate revenues relative to rentable fleet capacity. Higher Vehicle Utilization means more vehicles are being utilized to generate revenues.
•Depreciation Per Unit Per Month – important key metric 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 expected time of disposal and expected hold period of the vehicles. 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.
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)
•Total Revenue Per Transaction Day ("Total RPD," also referred to as "pricing") – important key metric 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 key metric to management and investors as it provides a measure of revenue productivity relative to the number of vehicles in our rental fleet whether owned or leased ("Average Rentable Vehicles"). Average Rentable Vehicles excludes vehicles for sale on our retail lots or actively in the process of being sold through other disposition channels.
•Transaction Days – important key metric 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.
Our non-GAAP measure and key metrics 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 non-GAAP measure and key metrics are defined, and the non-GAAP measure is reconciled to its 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 Holdings 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 from company-owned and franchisee locations in North America, Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia, the Caribbean, Latin America, the Middle East and New Zealand. We also sell vehicles through Hertz Car Sales.
OVERVIEW OF OUR BUSINESS AND OPERATING ENVIRONMENT
Our Business
We are engaged principally in the business of renting vehicles primarily through our Hertz, Dollar and Thrifty brands. 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 EVs, non-program vehicles and program vehicles based on market conditions, including residual values. Our business requires significant expenditures for vehicles, and, as such, we require substantial liquidity to finance such expenditures.
Our strategy is focused on excellence in execution of the basics. We are committed to delivering unmatched customer experiences, optimizing fleet economics and building on our leadership in ride share. Continuing to build on our brand strength, global network and global fleet management capabilities, while also combining those efforts with investments in technology, shared mobility and a digital-first customer experience, will allow us to deliver on the basics and remain a central player in the modern mobility ecosystem.
Our revenues are primarily derived from rental and related charges and consist of worldwide vehicle rental revenues from all company-operated vehicle rental operations and charges to customers for the reimbursement of costs incurred relating to airport concession fees and vehicle license fees, the fueling and electric charging of vehicles
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)
and revenues associated with value-added services, including the sale of loss or collision damage waivers, theft protection, liability and personal accident/effects insurance coverage, premium emergency roadside service and other products and fees. Also included are collections from customers for vehicle damages, ancillary revenues associated with retail vehicle sales and certain royalty fees from our franchisees (such fees are approximately 2% of total revenues each period).
Our expenses primarily consist of:
•direct vehicle and operating expense ("DOE"), 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 collision and damage, maintenance, fuel and electric charging costs;
•depreciation expense and lease charges, net relating to revenue earning vehicles, including gains and losses and related costs associated with the disposal of vehicles;
•depreciation and amortization expense relating to non-vehicle assets;
•selling, general and administrative expense ("SG&A"), which includes advertising costs and administrative personnel costs, along with costs for information technology and business transformation initiatives; and
•interest expense, net.
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 months ("our peak season") for the majority of countries where we generate our revenues. To accommodate increased demand, we seek to increase our available fleet and staff. As demand declines, we seek to reduce our fleet and staff accordingly. As a result, we strive to maintain a flexible workforce, with a significant number of part-time and seasonal workers. 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. Certain operating expenses, including real estate taxes, rent, insurance, utilities, maintenance and other facility-related expenses, and minimum staffing costs, remain fixed and cannot be adjusted for demand.
Our Reportable Segments
We have identified two reportable segments, which are consistent with our operating segments and organized based on the products and services provided and the geographic areas in which business is conducted, as follows:
•Americas RAC – Rental of vehicles, as well as sales of value-added services, in the U.S., Canada, Latin America and the Caribbean; and
•International RAC – Rental of vehicles, as well as sales of value-added services, in locations other than the U.S., Canada, Latin America and the Caribbean.
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.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 Compared with Three Months Ended March 31, 2024
Total revenues decreased $267 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, resulting from a decrease of $249 million and $18 million in our Americas RAC and International RAC segments, respectively. The decrease in total revenues was due primarily to lower volume and lower pricing.
Depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges, net decreased $434 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, of which $414 million and $20 million were attributed to our Americas RAC and International RAC segments, respectively. Depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges, net decreased due primarily to (i) write-downs on the carrying values of the EVs classified as held for sale in 2024, (ii) lower Average Vehicles, (iii) increased vehicle dispositions with per unit gains recognized in the first quarter of 2025 compared to per unit losses recognized in the same period in 2024 and (iv) strengthening of residual values at the expected time of disposal due primarily to improvements in the market.
DOE decreased $92 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, resulting from a decrease of $86 million and $9 million in our Americas RAC and International RAC segments, respectively. DOE decreased due primarily to lower volume in our Americas RAC segment and unfavorable fx impacts in our International RAC segment.
SG&A increased $58 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 driven primarily by an increase of $79 million associated with our corporate operations, partially offset by a decrease of $11 million and $10 million in our International RAC and Americas RAC segments, respectively. The increase in SG&A associated with our corporate operations was due primarily to a non-cash stock-based compensation gain related to forfeitures of former CEO awards in March 2024. SG&A in our International RAC segment decreased due primarily to lower restructuring related charges, decreased personnel costs and lower advertising spend. SG&A in our Americas RAC segment decreased due primarily to reduced restructuring related charges, partially offset by increased professional fees.
Vehicle interest expense, net was comparable in the first quarter of 2025 to the same period in 2024.
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)
Non-vehicle interest expense, net increased $51 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 due primarily to higher debt levels and higher average interest rates.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we recorded a tax benefit of $82 million, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 16%. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recorded a tax benefit of $395 million, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 59%. The change in taxes in the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 was driven primarily by lower estimated EV credits.
CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – HERTZ GLOBAL
The above discussion for Hertz also applies to Hertz Global.
Hertz Global had expense of $9 million and income of $86 million from the change in fair value of Public Warrants that were incremental to Hertz for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, included in Hertz Global's unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 Compared with Three Months Ended March 31, 2024
Total revenues for International RAC decreased $18 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 due primarily to lower volume. Transaction Days decreased in most business categories, primarily in Europe, partially offset by increases in most leisure categories. Total RPD was comparable in the first quarter of 2025 to the same period in 2024. Revenues in International RAC were also impacted by an unfavorable $12 million fx impact in 2025.
Depreciation of revenue earning vehicles and lease charges, net for International RAC in the first quarter of 2025 decreased $20 million compared to the same period in 2024 due primarily to (i) write-downs on the carrying values of the EVs classified as held for sale in 2024, (ii) per unit gains recognized on vehicle dispositions in the first quarter of 2025 compared to per unit losses recognized in the same period in 2024 and (iii) improved fleet mix resulting from our rental fleet rotation initiatives.
DOE for International RAC decreased $9 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 due primarily to a favorable $8 million fx impact in 2025.
SG&A for International RAC in the first quarter of 2025 decreased $11 million compared to the same period in 2024 due primarily to lower restructuring related charges, decreased personnel costs and lower advertising spend .
Vehicle interest expense for International RAC was comparable in the first quarter of 2025 to the same period in 2024.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our U.S. and international operations are funded by cash provided by operating activities and by extensive financing arrangements in the U.S. and internationally.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
As of March 31, 2025, we had $626 million of cash and cash equivalents and $395 million of restricted cash and cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2025, $214 million of cash and cash equivalents and $70 million of restricted cash and cash equivalents were held by our subsidiaries outside of the U.S. We continue to assert non-permanent reinvestment of foreign earnings that give rise to excess cash, provided such cash can be remitted in a tax efficient manner.
We believe that cash and cash equivalents generated by our operations and cash received on the disposal of vehicles, together with amounts available under various liquidity facilities and refinancing options available to us in the capital markets, will be sufficient to fund our operating activities and obligations for the next twelve months and for the foreseeable future thereafter.

Cash Flows – Hertz
As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, Hertz had cash and cash equivalents of $626 million and $591 million, respectively, and restricted cash and cash equivalents of $395 million and $541 million, respectively. The following table summarizes the net change in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents for the periods shown:

Net change in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents | $ | (111) | | | $ | (261) | | | $ | 150 | |
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, cash flows from operating activities decreased $119 million period over period due primarily to a $241 million change in net income, as adjusted for non-cash and non-operating items, partially offset by a $122 million change in working capital accounts. Cash flows from working capital accounts increased due primarily to the receipt of a value added tax refund in 2025, a decrease in prepaids due to timing and an increase in value added tax payables and prepaid rentals, partially offset by a net decrease in accrued interest related to our First Lien Senior Notes.
Our primary investing activities relate to the acquisition and disposal of revenue earning vehicles. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, there was an $15 million increase in the cash used in investing activities period over period due primarily to a $52 million increase in revenue earning vehicle expenditures, net, partially offset by a $35 million decrease in non-vehicle capital asset expenditures, net. The increase in cash used by revenue earning vehicle expenditures, net, resulted from increased vehicle acquisitions, partially offset by increased vehicle dispositions with per unit gains recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to per unit losses recognized in the same period in 2024. The decrease in cash used by non-vehicle capital asset expenditures, net was due primarily to increased proceeds resulting from certain asset dispositions in 2025.
Net financing cash inflows were $347 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $85 million in the 2024 period. The $262 million increase in cash inflows is due primarily to an increase of $100 million in net proceeds from vehicle debt largely resulting from the issuance of the HVF III Series 2025-1 and 2025-2 Notes in March 2025. Cash flows from financing activities were also impacted by a $175 million increase in net proceeds from non-vehicle debt resulting in part from higher outstanding draws on the First Lien RCF in the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024.

Fluctuations in operating, investing and financing cash flows from period to period were due to the same factors as those disclosed for Hertz above, with the exception of any cash inflows or outflows related to the issuance or repurchase of our common stock and the exercise of Public Warrants, as applicable. Also see Note 7, "Public Warrants, Equity and Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share – Hertz Global," in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
Debt Financing
Refer to Note 4, "Debt," in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for information on our outstanding debt obligations and our borrowing capacity and availability under our revolving credit facilities as of March 31, 2025.
Cash paid for interest on non-vehicle debt during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was $142 million and $58 million, respectively. The $84 million increase in cash paid for non-vehicle debt interest is due primarily to the issuance of the First Lien Senior Notes in the second quarter of 2024. Cash paid for interest on vehicle debt during the three months ended March 31, 2025 was consistent with the same period in 2024.
Our available corporate liquidity, which excludes unused commitments under our vehicle debt, was as follows:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
In May 2025, we entered into Amendment No. 10, which provides for the extension of the maturity date of $1.7 billion of commitments under our existing $2.0 billion First Lien RCF from June 2026 to March 2028, subject to a springing maturity date (as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement) and makes certain other amendments to the First Lien Credit Agreement. We will have access to up to $2.0 billion under the First Lien RCF until June 2026, and thereafter the aggregate amount of commitments under the First Lien RCF is $1.7 billion until March 2028, after giving effect to the terms of Amendment No. 10.
Amendment No. 10 also contains a minimum liquidity covenant, consistent with that of Amendment No. 8, which requires $400 million for each month ending in the second and third quarters of the calendar year and $500 million for each month ending in the first and fourth quarter of the calendar year. Liquidity as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement may be materially different than corporate liquidity presented above. Amendment No. 10 also adds certain limitations on Restricted Payments and Permitted Investments (each as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement). Under the terms of Amendment No. 10, the minimum liquidity covenant and certain restrictions will sunset upon the end of the Relief Period (as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement).
Exchangeable Notes
The Exchangeable Notes bear PIK interest payable on the Semi-annual PIK Event, where PIK interest increases the principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes upon each Semi-annual PIK Event. In connection with Semi-annual PIK Event in the first quarter of 2025, we increased the principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes by $11 million.
Additionally, for each Semi-annual PIK Event, we bifurcate the "Exchange Feature PIK" from the Exchangeable Notes for accounting purposes utilizing applicable guidance. As a result, we recognized a debt discount of $3 million within non-vehicle debt in the accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2025, representing the initial fair value. Refer to Note 10, "Fair Value Measurements," in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for further details.
The net carrying amount of the Exchangeable Notes consists of the following:

Covenants
The First Lien Credit Agreement requires us to comply with the following financial covenant: the First Lien Ratio, which requires a ratio of less than or equal to 3.0x in the first and last quarters of the calendar year and 3.5x in the second and third quarters of the calendar year. Amendment No. 8 temporarily increased the First Lien Ratio and contained a minimum liquidity covenant, which sunset, as expected, on the first day of the second quarter of 2025, as discussed above. As of March 31, 2025, we were in compliance with the First Lien Ratio, as temporarily amended. Amendment No. 10 requires a minimum liquidity covenant, consistent with Amendment No. 8, and will sunset upon the end of the Relief Period, as discussed above.
