  • Achieves 14.7% growth in equipment rental revenues for the third quarter of 2017 over the prior-year period
  • Third quarter net income increases to $12.8 million compared to $3.0 million in 2016
  • Adjusted EBITDA increases to $176.7 million in the third quarter of 2017 compared with $152.1 million in the prior-year period
  • Raises the lower end of its full year 2017 adjusted EBITDA guidance to $560 million from $550 million and maintains high end of $590 million

BONITA SPRINGS, Fla.--()--Herc Holdings Inc. (NYSE: HRI) ("Herc Holdings" or the "Company") today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2017. Equipment rental revenues were $413.1 million and total revenues were $457.6 million in the third quarter of 2017, up from $360.3 million and $403.6 million, respectively, for the same period last year. The Company reported net income of $12.8 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2017, compared to net income of $3.0 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, for the same period last year.

Equipment rental revenues increased 14.7%, average fleet at original equipment cost (OEC) increased 3.2% and overall pricing improved 1.7% in the third quarter of 2017 over the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA increased 16.2% to $176.7 million in the third quarter, compared to $152.1 million in the prior-year period. See page A-4 for a description of the items excluded in calculating adjusted EBITDA.

"Our strategy to expand our fleet and diversify our customer mix drove our double-digit increase in third quarter rental revenues over the prior year," said Larry Silber, president and chief executive officer. "Higher levels of equipment on rent and improved pricing also contributed positively to our year-over-year increase in dollar utilization, which increased 350 basis points to 38.7%.

"Our third quarter results validate our strategic initiatives and business transformation efforts, which enabled solid rental revenue growth throughout North America. Construction trends and leading economic indicators support estimates of continued strength in the rental equipment industry and contribute to the confidence we have in our business strategy," said Silber.

Third Quarter Highlights

  • Equipment rental revenues in the third quarter of 2017 increased 14.7% to $413.1 million, compared to $360.3 million in the prior-year quarter. The double-digit gain reflected growth across all of our regions.
  • Pricing increased 1.7% in the third quarter of 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, reflecting the sixth consecutive quarter of improvement in year-over-year gains.
  • Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter of 2017 increased 16.2% to $176.7 million, compared to $152.1 million in the third quarter of 2016, reflecting strong rental revenue growth in the quarter and improved flowthrough compared to the prior-year period.
  • Average fleet unavailable for rent (“FUR”) was 12.9% in the month of September 2017, compared to 13.1% in September 2016, reflecting continued focus on equipment turnaround times.
  • Dollar utilization of 38.7% in the third quarter of 2017 was up 350 basis points compared to the prior-year period, and up 470 basis points from the second quarter.
  • Direct operating expenses were $188.2 million in the third quarter of 2017, compared to $169.9 million in the prior-year period, primarily due to higher rental activity, which increased transportation and maintenance costs, and investments in branch operating personnel to support revenue growth.
  • Selling, general and administrative expense (SG&A) increased to $84.6 million in the third quarter of 2017, compared to $66.8 million in the prior-year period. The increase was driven by variable costs associated with higher revenues, including provision for bad debt and additional sales personnel and commissions. We also incurred higher information technology costs related to the spin-off.
  • Interest expense in the third quarter of 2017 of $32.4 million was flat compared to the prior-year period.

Nine Months Highlights

  • Equipment rental revenues in the nine months of 2017 increased 8.9% to $1,084.5 million, compared to $996.0 million in the prior-year period.
  • Overall pricing increased 1.4% in the nine months of 2017, compared to the same period in 2016.
  • The Company reported a net loss for the nine months of 2017 of $54.0 million, which included impairment charges of $29.3 million recorded during the second quarter of 2017, compared with a net loss of $6.5 million in the prior-year period.
  • Adjusted EBITDA in the nine months of 2017 increased 4.4% to $407.6 million compared to $390.5 million in the comparable period in 2016.
  • Direct operating expenses were $526.2 million in the nine months of 2017, compared to $487.8 million in the prior-year period, primarily due to higher rental revenue-related costs such as transportation expense and investments in branch operating personnel to support revenue growth.
  • Selling, general and administrative expense (SG&A) increased to $244.6 million in the nine months of 2017, compared to $203.5 million in the same period of 2016. The increase was driven by stand-alone public company costs in the first half of 2017 and information technology costs related to the spin-off, as well as variable costs associated with higher revenues as discussed above.
  • Interest expense in the nine months of 2017 was $101.8 million, an increase of $49.7 million compared to the prior-year period, primarily reflecting the increase in the Company's debt on a stand-alone basis.

Capital Expenditures -- Fleet

  • The Company reported net fleet capital expenditures of $234.7 million for the nine months of 2017. Gross fleet capital expenditures were $356.3 million and disposals were $121.6 million. See page A-5 for the calculation of net fleet capital expenditures.
  • At September 30, 2017, the Company had rental equipment of approximately $3.75 billion at original equipment cost (OEC), based on the American Rental Association guidelines. Average OEC increased 3.2% in the third quarter of 2017, and 4.4% in the nine months of 2017, compared to the prior-year periods. Average fleet age was approximately 49 months as of September 30, 2017.

2017 Guidance

Based on the continuing strength of the Company's operating performance and the positive market environment, the Company raised the lower end of its adjusted EBITDA guidance for the full year 2017. The new 2017 guidance for adjusted EBITDA is $560 million to $590 million compared with the previous range of $550 million to $590 million.

To meet the strong rental market demand, the Company now expects to spend approximately $355 million to $365 million in net fleet capital expenditures for the full year, an increase from the previous guidance of $275 million to $325 million.

The Company does not provide forward-looking guidance for certain financial measures on a GAAP basis or a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP reported financial measures on a forward-looking basis because it is unable to predict certain items contained in the GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts. Certain items that impact net income (loss) cannot be predicted with reasonable certainty, such as restructuring and restructuring related charges, special tax items, borrowing levels (which affect interest expense), gains and losses from asset sales, the ultimate outcome of pending litigation and spin-related costs.

Basis of Presentation

The financial information included in this press release is based upon the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company which are presented on in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). These financial statements and financial information represent only those operations, assets, liabilities and equity that form Herc Holdings on a stand-alone basis. As the spin-off occurred on June 30, 2016, amounts for the first half of 2016 represent carve-out financial results.

Forward-Looking Statements

This release contains statements, including those under "2017 Guidance," that are not statements of historical fact, but instead are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on these statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. There are a number of risks, uncertainties and other important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those suggested by our forward-looking statements, including:

  • Risks related to material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and the restatement of financial statements previously issued by Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. (in its form prior to the spin-off, “Hertz Holdings”), including that: we have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting that may adversely affect our ability to report our financial condition and results of operations in a timely and accurate manner, which may adversely affect investor and lender confidence in us and, as a result, the value of our common stock and our ability to obtain future financing on acceptable terms, and we may identify additional material weaknesses as we continue to assess our processes and controls as a stand-alone company with lower levels of materiality; our efforts to design and implement an effective control environment may not be sufficient to remediate the material weaknesses, or to prevent future material weaknesses; such material weaknesses could result in a material misstatement of our consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected; we receive certain transition services from Hertz Rental Car Holding Company, Inc. ("New Hertz") pursuant to the transition services agreement covering information technology ("IT") services and other areas, which impact our control environment and, therefore, our internal control over financial reporting; we continue to expend significant costs and devote management time and attention and other resources to matters related to our internal control over financial reporting; our material weaknesses and Hertz Holdings' restatement could expose us to additional risks that could materially adversely affect our ability to execute our strategic plan and our financial position, results of operations and cash flows, including as a result of events of default under the agreements governing our indebtedness and/or government investigations, regulatory inquiries and private actions; we may experience difficulties implementing new IT systems, including the migration of systems from New Hertz; we could experience disruptions to our control environment in connection with the relocation of our Shared Services Center, including as a result of the failure to retain key employees who possess specific knowledge or expertise necessary for the timely preparation of our financial statements; and Hertz Holdings' restatement has resulted in government investigations, books and records demands, and private litigation and could result in government enforcement actions and private litigation that could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows;
  • Risks related to the spin-off, which effected our separation from New Hertz, such as: we have limited operating history as a stand-alone public company, and our historical financial information for periods prior to July 1, 2016 is not necessarily representative of the results that we would have achieved as a separate, publicly traded company, and may not be a reliable indicator of our future results; the liabilities we have assumed and will share with New Hertz in connection with the spin-off could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations; if there is a determination that any portion of the spin-off transaction is taxable for U.S. federal income tax purposes, including for reasons outside of our control, then we and our stockholders could incur significant tax liabilities, and we could also incur indemnification liability if we are determined to have caused the spin-off to become taxable; if New Hertz fails to pay its tax liabilities under the tax matters agreement or to perform its obligations under the separation and distribution agreement, we could incur significant tax and other liability; our ability to engage in financings, acquisitions and other strategic transactions using equity securities is limited due to the tax treatment of the spin-off; the loss of the Hertz brand and reputation could materially adversely affect our ability to attract and retain customers; the spin-off may be challenged by creditors as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance; and if the spin-off is not a legal dividend, it could be held invalid by a court and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations;
  • Business risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and/or liquidity, including:
    • the cyclicality of our business, a slowdown in economic conditions or adverse changes in the economic factors specific to the industries in which we operate, in particular industrial and construction;
    • the dependence of our business on the levels of capital investment and maintenance expenditures by our customers, which in turn are affected by numerous factors, including the level of economic activity in their industries, the state of domestic and global economies, global energy demand, the cyclical nature of their markets, expectations regarding government spending on infrastructure improvements or expansions, their liquidity and the condition of global credit and capital markets;
    • we may experience significant difficulties, delay and/or significant costs from a number of IT systems projects, including the movement of our point of sale system from the New Hertz system to our own and the migration of our financial system from the New Hertz system to a stand-alone system, each of which will continue to require significant investment of human and financial resources, and any significant disruption from either migration could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, ability to report accurate financial results and our control environment;
    • we may have difficulty obtaining the resources that we need to operate, or our costs to do so could increase significantly;
    • intense competition in the industry, including from our own suppliers, that may lead to downward pricing or an inability to increase prices;
    • any occurrence that disrupts rental activity during our peak periods given the seasonality of the business, especially in the construction industry;
    • doing business in foreign countries exposes us to additional risks, including under laws and regulations that may conflict with U.S. laws and those under anticorruption, competition, economic sanctions and anti-boycott regulations;
    • our success as an independent company will depend on our new senior management team, the ability of other new employees to learn their new roles, and our ability to attract and retain key management and other key personnel;
    • some or all of our deferred tax assets could expire if we experience an “ownership change” as defined in the Internal Revenue Code;
    • changes in the legal and regulatory environment that affect our operations, including with respect to taxes, consumer rights, privacy, data security and employment matters, could disrupt our business and increase our expenses;
    • an impairment of our goodwill or our indefinite lived intangible assets could have a material non-cash adverse impact;
    • other operational risks such as: any decline in our relations with our key national account customers or the amount of equipment they rent from us; our equipment rental fleet is subject to residual value risk upon disposition, and may not sell at the prices we expect; we may be unable to protect our trade secrets and other intellectual property rights; we may fail to respond adequately to changes in technology and customer demands; our business is heavily reliant upon communications networks and centralized IT systems and the concentration of our systems creates or increases risks for us, including the risk of the misuse or theft of information we possess, including as a result of cyber security breaches or otherwise, which could harm our brand, reputation or competitive position and give rise to material liabilities; failure to maintain, upgrade and consolidate our IT networks could materially adversely affect us; we may face issues with our union employees; we are exposed to a variety of claims and losses arising from our operations, and our insurance may not cover all or any portion of such claims; environmental, health and safety laws and regulations and the costs of complying with them, or any change to them impacting our customers’ markets, could materially adversely affect us; decreases in government spending could materially adversely affect us and a lack of or delay in additional infrastructure spending may have a material adverse effect on our share price; maintenance and repair costs associated with our equipment rental fleet could materially adversely affect us; and strategic acquisitions could be difficult to identify and implement and could disrupt our business or change our business profile significantly;
  • Risks related to our substantial indebtedness, such as: our substantial level of indebtedness exposes us or makes us more vulnerable to a number of risks that could materially adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity and ability to compete; the secured nature of our indebtedness, which is secured by substantially all of our consolidated assets, could materially adversely affect our business and holders of our debt and equity; an increase in interest rates or in our borrowing margin would increase the cost of servicing our debt and could reduce our profitability; and any additional debt we incur could further exacerbate these risks;
  • Risks related to the securities market and ownership of our stock, including that: the market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly; the market price of our common stock could decline as a result of the sale or distribution of a large number of our shares or the perception that a sale or distribution could occur and these factors could make it more difficult for us to raise funds through future stock offerings; and provisions of our governing documents could discourage potential acquisition proposals and could deter or prevent a change in control; and
  • Other risks and uncertainties set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, under Item 1A "Risk Factors" and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

All forward-looking statements are expressly qualified in their entirety by such cautionary statements. We do not undertake any obligation to release publicly any update or revision to any of the forward-looking statements.

Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to results calculated according to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), the Company has provided certain information in this release which is not calculated according to GAAP (“non-GAAP”), such as adjusted EBITDA. Management uses these non-GAAP measures to evaluate operating performance and period-over-period performance of our core business without regard to potential distortions, and believes that investors will likewise find these non-GAAP measures useful in evaluating the Company’s performance. These measures are frequently used by security analysts, institutional investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry.

Non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP and, as calculated, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. For the definitions of these terms, further information about management’s use of these measures as well as a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures, please see the supplemental schedules that accompany this release.

EBITDA AND ADJUSTED EBITDA RECONCILIATIONS
Unaudited
(In millions)

EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are not recognized terms under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further, since all companies do not use identical calculations, our definition and presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA - EBITDA represents the sum of net income (loss), provision for income taxes, interest expense, net, depreciation of revenue earning equipment and non-rental depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA plus the sum of merger and acquisition related costs, restructuring and restructuring related charges, spin-off costs, non-cash stock based compensation charges, loss on extinguishment of debt (which is included in interest expense, net), impairment charges, gain on the disposal of a business and certain other items. Management uses EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to evaluate operating performance and period-over-period performance of our core business without regard to potential distortions, and believes that investors will likewise find these non-GAAP measures useful in evaluating the Company's performance. These measures are frequently used by security analysts, institutional investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. However, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA do not purport to be alternatives to net earnings as an indicator of operating performance. Additionally, neither measure purports to be an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, as they do not consider certain cash requirements such as interest payments and tax payments. The reconciliation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) is presented below:
