Key Details

• $300 million: proposed aggregate principal amount of Exchangeable Senior First‑Lien Secured PIK Notes due 2030 (private offering, Securities Act exemptions).
• $100 million: aggregate price of common stock to be offered in a SEC‑registered offering (these are the “Borrowed Shares”).
• Share lending: Borrowed Shares will be loaned to J.P. Morgan Securities LLC to enable sales and to facilitate hedging (short sales or privately negotiated derivatives) by Note investors.
• Date filed: Form 8‑K and related press releases disclosed on June 24, 2026.

Why It Matters

• Capital structure: the $300M exchangeable PIK notes add secured, interest‑in‑kind debt that could affect leverage and future cash flows; exchangeable features could have future equity implications depending on exchange terms.
• Potential dilution and market impact: the $100M registered share offering and related share lending/sales may increase stock supply in the market and affect the company’s outstanding shares or short interest in the near term.
• Execution risk: both offerings are subject to market and other customary conditions and may not be completed as announced; investors should review Hertz’s offering documents and the company’s 2025 Form 10‑K for related risk factors.
