The Knighthead plan raises enough cash to pay off all creditors in full
as well as make the cash payment to shareholders. Hertz’s shares have
rallied to $3.48 from a low this year of 66 cents, implying a current market
capitalisation exceeding $500m.
The bankruptcy court must approve the winning bidder, which will be followed
by a vote on the plan by Hertz claimants. The company is racing to lock in
a deal and exit the Chapter 11 process by the beginning of July, the start
of the company’s busiest season.
The favourable conditions in the capital markets have enabled the fevered
fight for Hertz.
“I can’t recall a better financing market,” William Derrough, Hertz’s
investment banker at Moelis & Co, said in court testimony in April. |

Investment firms Knighthead Capital Management LLC and Certares Management
LLC emerged as winners in a bankruptcy auction for Hertz Global Holdings Inc
. after a bidding war that had the rare outcome of providing chapter 11
recoveries for shareholders, people familiar with the matter said.
The winning bid that Hertz accepted provides for a distribution estimated at
close to $8 a share to the company’s current stockholders, these people
said, well above Tuesday’s closing price for the company’s shares of $3.69
. Some of that would be paid in cash, with warrants and reorganized equity
also accounting for some of the value.
The rental car provider, among the largest companies to file for chapter 11
during the pandemic, hopes to leave bankruptcy around the end of June.
Knighthead and Certares would be joined by others including Apollo Global
Management Inc. and a group of existing shareholders in taking control of
Hertz at a time when the travel industry is on an upswing, thanks to growing
coronavirus vaccination rates and pent up demand among vacationers.
The proposed distribution to current stockholders is a rarity. Corporate
bankruptcies, which usually don’t generate enough value to retire the debt,
or provide a recovery for equity. Initial offers from potential buyers of
Hertz in its bankruptcy offered nothing to shareholders |

Apollo Global Management and a group of existing shareholders will join
Knighthead and Cetares in taking control of Hertz, which filed for
bankruptcy last May.
Under the proposal, which must be approved by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court,
Hertz’s Chapter 11 plan will be funded through direct common stock
investments from investors and others aggregating $2.78 billion, the
issuance of $1.5 billion of new preferred stock to Apollo and a fully
backstopped rights offering to the company’s existing shareholders to
purchase about $1.64 billion of additional common stock.
Shares of Hertz jumped by as much as 68% before retreating some throughout
the day. Its stock was trading at $5.78 a share as of 2.30 p.m. Wednesday,
up by about 58%. Its market cap is nearly $900 million.
The rental car firm was among the largest companies to file for Chapter 11
during the coronavirus pandemic after demand evaporated during lockdowns
last spring due to Covid-19. More than a year later, demand for rental cars
is outpacing supplies as the country reopens and some Americans continue to
rent vehicles over flying. |

The reorganization plan is one that is very confusing and has been changed
from the original plan. There had been an income requirement. From The Wall
Street Journal:
Q: How are shareholders treated under the bankruptcy plan?
A: Current shareholders will receive $1.53 in cash per share, plus their
proportion of a 3% stake in the restructured business set aside for
shareholders, and warrants for an additional 18% stake. The warrants are
akin to options, conferring on their owner the right to buy shares at a
certain price. If Hertz’s equity valuation surpasses $6.5 billion, the
warrants are in the money. The more Hertz is worth beyond that threshold,
the more valuable the warrants. Certain accredited shareholders—
institutional buyers and wealthier individuals—can forego the warrants and
instead participate in an equity rights offering.
Q: Who can participate in the rights offering?
A: To qualify, individuals must have either a net worth of $1 million or
more, or have generated at least $200,000 in income for 2019 and 2020 and
can expect to earn the same in 2021. Otherwise, they and their spouse must
have collectively earned more than $300,000 for 2019 and 2020 and expect to
earn the same in 2021 to qualify.
Q: Do shareholders who are ineligible for the rights offering have any
decisions to make?
A: Yes. Those who are ineligible for the rights offering can still elect to
sell their subscription rights to participate in the rights offering to
other, qualified investors in a court-supervised auction.
Any shareholder who doesn’t want to participate in the rights offering and
doesn’t want to sell their rights can choose to accept their share of the
warrants, plus the cash payout and 3% equity distribution. If a shareholder
doesn’t notify Hertz of their decision, they will automatically be granted
the warrants.
上面的说法,现金1.53刀,新股3%,按6.2B 算,只有1刀多点,魔鬼在warrant,价格
数量几乎没有任何细节。我的仓位不大,打算啥也不干,让broker自动换过去。 |

https://www.barrons.com/articles/hertz-stock-bankruptcy-51623793538
Hertz Stock Is Rallying as Its Exit From Bankruptcy Nears. Here’s Why.
Hertz Global Holdings shares have been rallying amid investor enthusiasm for
the rental-car company ahead of its planned emergence from bankruptcy on
June 30.
Investors appear to be attracted to Hertz because of strong rental-car
pricing, a discounted valuation relative to rival Avis Budget Group (ticker:
CAR), and expectations that the company will have greater financial and
operational flexibility once it exits bankruptcy.
Hertz shares (HTZGQ) rose 23 cents, or 3%, to $7.91 on Tuesday after hitting
a new 52-week high of $8.89. They traded as recently as June 4 at around $6
, when Barron’s wrote favorably on the stock. Hertz now is valued at $1.2
billion based on 156 million shares outstanding.
The stock was up about 10% Monday. The company’s reorganization plan was
approved by a bankruptcy court last week.
Under that plan, creditors are being paid off in full, and shareholders are
getting a package of cash, shares in the reorganized company, and stock
warrants that Hertz’s financial advisers estimated earlier this year was
worth $7.36 a share. Based on investor enthusiasm for the company, the
package could be worth considerably more than $7.36 a share.
Shareholders recently had the opportunity to participate in a rights
offering to buy new stock or take warrants in the reorganized company.
Nearly 90% chose warrants, which was viewed as the more attractive choice
based on the projected value of the warrants.
New shares of the reorganized Hertz are expected to begin trading around
June 30 with when-issued activity possible earlier. The warrants are
expected to start trading around the same time as the stock.
There are expected to be about 470 million of new Hertz shares outstanding.
Current stockholders and others had the right to buy stock at $10 a share.
An investor group including Knighthead Capital and Certares Management has
agreed to buy almost $3 billion of stock, reflecting the enthusiasm among
many institutional investors for Hertz.
Based on an estimated equity value for the company of $6.5 billion, that
implies a stock price for new Hertz shares of around $14. The warrants are
based on a $6.5 billion valuation, meaning an estimated strike price of
close to $14.
Current Hertz stockholders will get $1.53 a share in cash, 3% of the stock
in the reorganized company, and warrants for 18% of the reorganized company.
That may translate into roughly one tenth of a share of new stock and about
two-thirds of a warrant per a current Hertz share, Barron’s estimates.
The bulk of the value in the package is in the warrants, which have an
unusually long maturity of 30 years. That long maturity should make the
warrants valuable and give them a high correlation, or delta, relative to
the stock. A $1 change in the stock could mean a 75-cent change in the Hertz
warrants, for a delta of 75%. Most warrants mature in 10 years or less.
Investors are excited about rising rental car pricing amid a scarcity of
vehicles. The consumer price index report for May released last week showed
that rental car prices were up 10% in the month after 14% increases in each
of the previous two months. There has been anecdotal evidence of customers
paying hundreds of dollars a day for rental cars amid scarcity. This summer
could be a blockbuster period for the industry.
“Here comes the pricing power” was the title of a research note from
Morgan Stanley analyst Billy Kovanis on Avis. He notes that the incremental
profit on higher pricing is 90%. He lifted his cash flow estimates for Avis
for 2021, 2022, and 2023.
He also said that investor money could flow into Hertz stock if it emerged
from bankruptcy with a lower valuation than Avis, whose stock has more than
doubled this year. Avis shares were off 85 cents on Tuesday, to $90.75.
Hertz is expected to emerge from bankruptcy with little or no net debt and a
stronger balance sheet than Avis, whose market value is $6.4 billion.
Avis has been the main way to play the rental-car industry. That will change
with Hertz’s emergence late this month. Avis, Hertz and the private
Enterprise dominate the U.S. industry. |

Hertz Is About to Exit Bankruptcy. Why Its Stock Is a Buy. -- Barrons.com
BY Dow Jones & Company, Inc.
— 6:49 PM ET 06/25/2021
Hertz set to emerge from bankruptcy this week at a perfect time. And
shareholders stand to gain.
The rental-car industry is capitalizing on both a domestic travel surge and
a vehicle shortage this summer to raise prices. Vacationers are paying $275
a day or more for midsize sport utility vehicles from Hertz in popular
locations and $100-a-day rentals are common, double what Hertz was getting
in the first quarter. Used-car prices, meanwhile, have surged, benefiting
the industry when they sell their fleets.
"The rental-car market is on fire, and the companies have found pricing
discipline," says Hamzah Mazari, an analyst at Jefferies. "What used to be a
dysfunctional oligopoly is now functional." Hertz , Avis Budget Group ,and
privately owned Enterprise control about 95% of the domestic market.
The way to play Hertz is through its current stock, which has nearly doubled
, to $7.15, since mid-May. That's when a group led by Knighthead Capital
Management, Certares Management, and Apollo Global Management,won a bidding
contest in bankruptcy court for the company. More upside is likely after
Hertz exits bankruptcy -- expected on June 30, with the new stock trading
the next day. Hertz will emerge with little or no net corporate debt, while
Avis has about $ 3.5 billion.
"Our plan for Hertz is to invest heavily in modernizing the company's
technology and improving the customer experience," Greg O'Hara, senior
managing director and founder of Certares, tells Barron's. "Along with a
right-sized capital structure and favorable economic tailwinds, we can turn
Hertz -- which has always had a strong brand -- into a stronger company, as
well."
Andy Taylor, managing director at Carronade Capital Management, another firm
involved in the restructuring, says, " It's hard to overstate how well
positioned Hertz is coming out of this restructuring. Hertz will emerge with
the healthiest balance sheet in the rental-car sector into an unprecedented
demand and pricing environment, which should persist through the second
half of 2022, given that the industry can't increase supply due to a 50-year
low in auto inventory."
Current Hertz shares are due to be exchanged for a package consisting of $1.
53 a share in cash, 3% of the stock in the reorganized company, and warrants
-- a long-term call option -- for 18% of the new, postbankruptcy company.
Holders of the current Hertz shares could realize $10 to $12 a share, Taylor
says.
The initial trading in new Hertz stock could begin at $13.80, valuing it at
$6.5 billion based on about 472 million shares outstanding. There is also $1
.5 billion of preferred stock held by Apollo.
Assume no net debt and Hertz is valued at about nine times projected 2023
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, or Ebitda,
of $859 million. This projection was made by Hertz management in April and
could prove conservative given the strong industry trends.
Many investors are confused by the package of securities that Hertz holders
will get. As noted, holders will get $ 1.53 a share in cash, new stock, and
warrants for each current Hertz share. The stock portion could be worth
about $1.25 for a current Hertz share, based on the estimated issuance to
Hertz holders of 14 million new shares, or nearly one-10th of a new share
for each current Hertz share.
Current Hertz holders are expected to get nearly two-thirds of a warrant for
each share with a strike price of $6.5 billion of new equity value, or $13.
80 a share based on the new stock. The warrant is expected to account for
the bulk of the package value.
The warrants are tricky to value. Their maturity of 30 years -- most
warrants mature in less than 10 years -- makes them valuable. Based on
option pricing models, each could trade around $8, assuming a stock price of
$14, meaning that holders would get roughly $5 in warrant value.
Using these assumptions, the package of cash, stock, and warrants could be
worth about $8 per current Hertz share: $1.53 a share in cash, $1.25 in
stock, and $5 of warrants -- a premium to the current stock price. If new
Hertz gains, there would be additional upside. The risk is a lower price on
the new stock and warrants.
The biggest risk that investors face is if the industry's discipline
crumbles when the car shortage eases. Yet Hertz and Avis cut their fleets in
the pandemic and have been slow to rebuild them as auto makers prioritize
sales of vehicles to dealers. Hertz's U.S. fleet stood at 292,000 on March
31, down from 519,000 a year earlier.
One potential spark for Hertz would be a deal to sell cars to a large used-
car retailer. There has been talk about a possible deal between Hertz and
Carvana which would help Hertz on used-car sales and give Carvana a regular
supply of vehicles. Carvana and Hertz did not respond to requests for
comment.
Like its old ad slogan, Hertz puts investors "in the driver's seat" in a
rapidly improving industry.
