The purchase agreement provides Hertz with the rights to purchase certain rights, trademarks and copyrights to use the Advantage brand name, Web site and phone numbers, according to a statement issued by Hertz. In addition, the agreement provides Hertz with the option to have assigned to the Company certain leases, fixed assets, airport concession agreements and other agreements associated with approximately 20 locations that Advantage is or previously was operating. Hertz has announced that it will continue operating the Advantage business at these rental locations, and it will assess expansion opportunities. Mark P. Frissora, Hertz's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commenting on the agreement, said, "We're pleased to have secured the purchase of Advantage Rent A Car, a popular brand for price- oriented customers at key U.S. leisure travel destinations. Underscoring our commitment to serve all segments of the leisure car rental market, the 20 Advantage locations, combined with our six Simply Wheelz locations and the Hertz brand nationwide, enables us to serve the wide range of service and price-oriented car rental customers in the United States." In December 2008, Advantage and 14 affiliates filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. At the time of the bankruptcy filing, Advantage said it had made arrangements with Hertz to honor its pending reservations at locations that would be closed. http://www.autorentalnews.com/news/story/2009/04/hertz-wins-303m-bid-for-advantage-a... 4/16/2017 Hertz Wins $30.3M Bid for Advantage Assets - News - Auto Rental News Page 2 of 5 In early March, Enterprise announced its intention to purchase the Advantage assets for $19 million pending approval of the bankruptcy court, which would also consider competing bids. Enterprise formally declined to increase its bid once the asking price exceeded the company’s return- on-investment criteria on March 31. Hertz and Enterprise were the only companies to bid on Advantage’s assets. Approval of the transaction is pending a court hearing scheduled for April 3.

  • Differentiation in the United States Rental Car Industry
    2016 International Business & Education Conferences – January 3-7 Orlando, FL, USA Differentiation In The United States Rental Car Industry Maria Noriega Fee, University of the Incarnate Word, San Antonio Texas, USA Michelle Senser, University of the Incarnate Word, San Antonio, USA Ryan Lunsford, Ph.D., University of the Incarnate Word, San Antonio, USA ABSTRACT The $26 billion rental car industry has become increasingly consolidated in recent years (Autorentalnews.com, 2014). Rental car companies play a significant role in the overall travel economy apart from simply providing vehicles for vacationers. They support the domestic automotive industry, provide transportation for urban locals and travelers, and provide tens of thousands of U.S. jobs while fostering career growth (Shankman, 2013). This case study provides a historical overview and industry analysis of the sector’s three principal competitors, namely, Avis Budget Group, Inc., Enterprise Holdings, Inc., and Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. Recent industry consolidation has resulted in the grouping of the largest individually branded rental car companies under the umbrella of the “big three.” As competition continues to intensify, each brand seeks to obtain and leverage at least one sustainable competitive advantage. This case study will identify the primary categories of differentiation and discuss the sustainable business practices that are paramount for the continued success of each company. This case study suggests that the true determinates of rental car company selection are Service, Types of Rentals, Ease of Use, Pricing, and Loyalty Programs. In addition, this case study identifies emerging market trends in the rental car industry and offers several practical recommendations moving forward.
