Segments <\/b><\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n
Primarily, Hertz Global Holdings Inc. (NYSE:HTZ) generates 80% of its revenue from car rental from both the U.S. and international market; however, focus on equipment business due to its stronger rental volumes and pricing. Overall, equipment rental business accounted $1.1 billion i.e. about 14% of Hertz\u2019s revenue. It includes rentals over industrials, oil & gas, construction and specialty markets.<\/p>\n
\n
In 3Q2013, North American rental revenues were up by 12.3%, primarily due to increased volumes and improved pricing. The growth is largely driven by expansion in industrials, oil & gas and specialty markets. This improves free cash flow as a result of increased investment related to equipment rental fleet growth and non-fleet capital expenditure.<\/p>\n
\n
Outlook<\/b><\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n
Hertz Global Holdings Inc. (NYSE:HTZ) expects potential growth in fleet across sectors in 4Q2013 in equipment business. However, slower recovery in construction business, which represents nearly 40% overall equipment unit, may affect the company\u2019s revenue as well as operating profit (EBITDA). Therefore, company\u2019s focus towards construction business is falling regularly and the separation will have significant impact going forward.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
